You can have RFC vote options like - Raise Error/Exception when CSPRNG is not available (Choice: Yes/No) - Use error(E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR) or exception(Whatever exception prefered) (Choice: Error/Exception) BTW, I prefer exception, but consistency is important also. My vote will be Yes and Error. Regards, -- Yasuo Ohgaki yohgaki@ohgaki.net
