Have you done the calculations to derive the 6144-bit prime in this series? If so, are you willing to share your code? I confess i don't see why the safe primes should be farther for this construction than a similar construction with pi, but it certainly seems to be the case. Is there a reference that i should read to understand this better? --dkg
