Ekr has an interesting blog post up on the question of whether protocol
support for periodic rekeying is a good or a bad thing:
http://www.educatedguesswork.org/2010/03/against_rekeying.html
I'd be interested in hearing what people think on the topic. I'm a bit
skeptical of his position, partially because I think we have too little
experience with real world attacks on cryptographic protocols, but I'm
fairly open-minded at this point.
