Agreed. I'm not suggesting that we must be fully NIST/PCI-DSS/whatever
compliant before we add anything but rather that we have a plan for how
to get there. Note that the plan is needed primairly to ensure that we
don't end up in a situation that makes it difficult to move forward in
the future due to compatibility or upgrade issues.

Thanks,

Stephen
