Good. They need to engage people and go for the openness and transparency. Otherwise I'd be seriously concerned about the security of this project.

I couldn't find a reference to the 'vigorous debate' mentioned. Can anyone point to relevant security mailing lists where Haystack is being discussed?

Interesting. That's a post by Jacob Applebaum who works on Tor. His Twitter feed is full of his thoughts about Haystack: http://twitter.com/ioerror
