I've just read your article on the above in the Peer Review section, and I think it's very good; very lucid and easy to understand. Cryptography is an interest of mine, and I did notice that your history of it was a little brief; to go from Caesar Shift ciphers to the Enigma is, as you say, quite a jump! I wondered whether you'd be interested in collaborating with me to expand that section a bit; perhaps to include things like the development of frequency analysis, Vigenere's Square, Louis XIV's Great Cipher, Napoleon's codes and George Scovell, that sort of thing. If you're interested (and it's only a suggestion) you can contact me via My Space.
