  Interesting, in spanish, "el" is analogous to "the" in english (but
just for singular "male" subjects). By the way, what is the right term,
"Von" or "von"? Regarding with Elgamal, it is a bit confusing the fact
it can mean a family of algorithms, or one of these algorithms... I
think I will stay using RSA... (lol)
