I was under the impression that the use of ECC was obstructed by multiple extremely broad overlapping patents, each patenting much the same thing, but that if the NSA licenses you, your ass is covered. But for non government uses, NSA is presumably not going to license you, and cutting a deal with patent holders is going to be too arduous for any organization that does not have a menacing team of lawyers in house. What is the patent and licensing situation with that product? Did NSA license you to sell it to anyone? _______________________________________________ FDE mailing list [email protected] http://www.xml-dev.com/mailman/listinfo/fde
