Presumably that's not what was intended? Sorry, wrong URL. It should have been: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ft26lUQyuSpiu6VleP70_npaWdRfXFoNnB8JYnykNTg And Andreas has pointed out there are a few places where it may be slightly out of date. So it's good for checking the general idea, but some of the details may not be quite right. In particular, we are now using CTS (Ciphertext Stealing) mode for directory entries, instead of the weird thing described in the design doc. - Ted
