There will be lectures on May 10 and 17. The May 10 lecture
will be on security: a short course in the mathematics of
cryptography, followed by the security mechanisms of the Java
language, and maybe if I have time something on SSH/TLS/Kerberos
(TLS is son of SSL).

The current plan is to talk on JINI and possibly JAVA SPACES
on May 17. Its possible some of the security stuff may spill
to May 17. It depends somewhat on what the class wants to hear
within the confines of these topics.

Of course attendence is unrelated to grade. Hopefully at least
a few interested listeners will show up.

PS: Its possible the projects will be due as early as May 18. I
am about to apply for permission to set the due date 1 week later.
