Thanks Russ.

For comparison, the IBC recommended parameters are here <http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5091#section-9>

I don't see the full report on the official announcement site at <http://www.fujitsu.com/global/news/pr/archives/month/2012/20120618-01.html>   Has anyone seen the full technical report?

David
