As I mentioned in my (private) email to you - I strongly recommend
that you contribute (as an author) to the existing Cryptoloop HOWTO
(http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Cryptoloop-HOWTO/).
Your text could be interspersed in the appropriate areas concerning
introduction/installation and a new section could be created outlining
the problems and solutions you highlight in your document (regarding
the INsecurity).
