c39671d91a Add section about different types of enforcement and rename a section. 2014-02-20 12:56:09 -05:00
Bradley M. Kuhn
b09eaf432c s/Davrik/Boretz/, since Davrik is close to Dalvik 
Dalvik didn't exist as a software package when the anonymous name
placeholders were chosen when this was originally written.  At this point,
using Darvik as a name will likely only cause confusion Dalvik, which is
fully unrelated to this matter.

8696eb1b08 This essay is out of date and completely useless now in these materials.

outlines are already in place for most of that.
