    Very few people can verify the security of security software. I can at least hack out a "hello world" program in 5 or 6 different languages, but I wouldn't have a clue how to verify the security of a GPL keyring app, nor would I have the inclination. Your app may be large enough that research institutions have done that work, but how many would bother to verify a memo pad application? or the security of a checkbook?

    In some ways, this is an honest question. Aside from saying "we use X plugin from RSA" or "the university of wisconsin has verified us," how can one person ensure the security of what they work with?
