Folks: I'm trying to get pycryptopp and Tahoe-LAFS into Fedora, and one tiny little detail that I have to work-around is that MARS is patented. Fedora already includes a version of Crypto++ 5.6.0 with mars.cpp stripped out, so the only reason I even have to be aware of this detail is that I included a copy of Crypto++ v5.6.0 inside the pycryptopp source distribution, and now I suppose I need to remove mars.cpp from that embedded copy.
Anyway, I was thinking that it might be nice to let Crypto++ be more easily/more widely re-used by removing mars.cpp from the Crypto++ upstream. I've never heard of anyone using MARS cipher, personally. Have you?
