Santosh,

I was using terms precisely, not loosely.

The network evaluations were done against Red Book (TNI)
published as NCSC TG-005, and not against the Orange Book
proper.

DBMS evals were done against the Purple Book, published
as NCSC TG-021, and not against the Orange Book
proper.

(I have a full set of colouring books to hand from
a previous life.  :-)

Cheers,

Ran
