-q should be prime, and ideally should be a "strong prime",
-which means it's of the form 2n+1 where n is also prime.
-q also needs to be long enough to prevent the attacks LaMacchia and
-Odlyzko described (some variant on a factoring attack which generates
-a large pile of simultaneous equations and then solves them);
-long enough is about the same size as factoring, so 512 bits may not
-be secure enough for most applications.  (The 192 bits used by
-"secure NFS" was certainly not long enough.)
-
-a should be a generator for q, which means it needs to be
-relatively prime to q-1.   Usually a small prime like 2, 3 or 5 will
-work.

-Since your prime is really random, proving it is hard.
-My personal limit on rigorously proved primes is ~350 digits.
-If you really want a proof, we should talk to Francois Morain,
-or the Australian group.
-
-If you want 2 to be a generator (mod P), then you need it
-to be a non-square.  If (P-1)/2 is also prime, then
-non-square == primitive-root for bases << P.
-
-In the case at hand, this means 2 is a generator iff P = 11 (mod 24).
-If you want this, you should restrict your sieve accordingly.
-
-3 is a generator iff P = 5 (mod 12).
-
-5 is a generator iff P = 3 or 7 (mod 10).
-
-2 is perfectly usable as a base even if it's a non-generator, since
-it still covers half the space of possible residues.  And an
-eavesdropper can always determine the low-bit of your exponent for
-a generator anyway.
