Doug, our word list is maintained in the Doc Project Primer :
doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/fdp-primer and we default to the O'Reilly
spelling for unlisted words.  The O'Reilly word list is linked from
that article.

I'm not sure what two sources Tom is referring to above, but it's
spelled as 'IPSEC' on the O'Reilly word list, which is the second most
popular spelling according to earlier posters on this thread.  I'm
fine with switching to 'IPsec' if it is in fact more common in the
literature, but we just need to keep our word lists updated so that
someone else doesn't come through and switch it back in 6 months.
