Dan,
That was a problem wit the use of "this" in the crypto code -- it was
used in anger instead of just in to qualify things. It is a reference
to the formula itself, which is not something which I think we should
keep for general use.
I plan to rewrite the application so that it doesn't use this. It
doesn't really need to - it was just interesting way fr expressing
things at the time.
In other words, instead of saying "This is a certificate" you can say
"There is a certificate", and that makes it a certficateDocument, no
big deal.
One doesn't have to say "I hereby declare the bridge open" -- you can
say "the bridge is open".
