There is an obvious flaw in the notion of ONE person being the only one to
know the identities of the clean room people. Any node without backup is
subject to catastrophic failure. Care and caution need to be exercised in
managing the blind structure of the linkage between clean and dirty teams,
and unless clean tem members are to be given the identity of one or more
dirty team members (thus tainting the isolation model) the entire project
could be jeopardized by the accidental incapacitation of one person.
