* Conversations uses two different OpenPGP implementations. (It doesn’t)

* The auth tag truncation was 'silently' introduced in the spec. It wasn’t. The author retracted that but only barely

* ominously pointing out that Conversations has a SASL implementation (In fact Conversations can use that to detect some MITM attacks; which is pretty cool)

* ominously pointing out that Conversations has a certificate parser (yes and so does almost everything that uses TLS)
