For cpunxnews/cryptography: Seems people missed this anonymous note about Dr Stefan Brands new company http://www.credentica.com on cypherpunks -- interesting news -- will Credentica persue ecash, private credentials, more liberal licensing terms than digicash and ecash-technologies/infospace.
(Brands ecash and credential patent suite is the only major contender to Chaum's patent suite. Chaum's patent suite was recently acquired by Infospace for an undisclosed amount from ecash-technologies which earlier bought the patents when digicash filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy.) >>>>> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Brands credentica (Re: [Tsg] Micropayments & VISA?) Your information is out of date: Brands is no longer at ZKS, last month a new company was launched in which Brands is involved, see www.credentica.com, the rights are not tangled up in any way (legal separation, all rights cleared).
