<PRE>Hello All,
I was wondering if Crypto.Random is suitable for password generation
purposes. I maintain an xkcd-style password generator (
<A HREF="https://github.com/beala/xkcd-password">https://github.com/beala/xkcd-password</A>) and have switched from python's
random.SystemRandom to pycrypto's Crypto.Random. Python only makes vague
guarantees about random.SystemRandom, so I thought pycrypto would be a
better choice. Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Alex Beal
