I seem to recall an intensive three days of people talking about what CMS=
 and KMS is / are / should be  just a while back. 

Only trouble is, can't remember what conclusion(s) was/were reached, or=
 where they were stored if they were reached. :-) 

I think the answer is whatever it was that someone Knowledgeable About These=
 Things last said it was.   Only answer details I recall seem to have to do=
 with the length of string, or some such. 

Make up an answer as to what it should be, then point out that there isn't=
 one yet, but there are lots of sort of things that sort of look like they=
 might be part of the way to whatever it is you think they should be. 

But make sure you keep a copy of the answer somewhere.   :-) 

More helpful suggestions follow.... tomorrow maybe...
