The Entrust folks were pushing CAST at the Memphis IETF. It also suddenly
showed up as an IPsec option right after Memphis.
It would be interesting to know if it's "safe". (and if it's fast and if
you can get a copy in C and and and...)
Notes other encryption schemes are not experiencing the same "fame" in the
IETF, for example there's no Blowfish IPsec transform yet.
