YAMN stands for "Yet Another Mix Net"

Developed by Steve Crooks/Zax.

YAMN (https://github.com/crooks/yamn) tries to look
like its famous older brother Mixmaster. But there are
some significant differences and improvements.

For example,there are revised crypto functions.

Instead of Mixmaster's Triple-DES,RSAES-PKCS1-v1_5 and MD5, YAMN uses
AES, NaCl
Box and Blake2.

Also deterministic header padding has been
added so as to protect against tagging attacks.
