NIST password recommendations

Some very good recommendations from NIST regarding passwords. Opting for longer passwords for instance rather than short and overly complicated is a win-win: easier to memorize, and still more secure.

Also, password expiry has to die. How many users are ending up with a Post-It on their monitor, or just a number appended to same base password because they get tired of changing it every 30-90 days.
