Unfortunately acrypto patch is more than 200kb, so neither mail list will accept it, so I've sent it in such form :)
Actually the most interesting is the first e-mail with subject line "[0/many] Acrypto - asynchronous crypto layer for linux kernel 2.6" which has description of the acrypto layer and it's features. Acrypto patches itself live in patches with prefix "acrypto" [it is from 1 to 21]. bd lives in the last five patches. Several first e-mails without first number ([??/many]...) are various descriptions.
E-mail with subject line "[??/many] list of files to be sent in a next couple of e-mails with small description" contains small one line description of each e-mail.
Sorry for such form, but it is really big set of information pieces, so I combined it in a such way.
