In fairness, it wasn't just me! Roger Dingledine, Mike Freedman, and David
Hopwood all did amazing work on that paper. You should also look at
Dingledine & Syverson's paper on reputation in MIX cascades from the last
FC.
Right now, there is work underway on "Mixminion," a type III remailer
protocol and implementation. Roger Dingledine has a slide show on it
available at
http://freehaven.net/doc/defcon02/slides-dc02.pdf
(this was shown at DEF CON). For more information, you can check out
http://www.mixminion.net/ for draft paper, current code, and spec. Then hop
over to the mixminion-dev archives http://archives.seul.org/mixminion/dev/
for in-depth information.
