So you trust some binary blob? .-) > Is that your signature on the idea.c module from key ID 621CC013 ? Yes. Back in 1997 I implemented PGP 2 compatible code as the first towards GPG. Obviously I needed IDEA and RSA for testing. That is the reason why we have this code at all. Later a lot of people demanded that IDEA and RSA should be added to GPG so that existing files could be decrypted. The claim was that RSA is only patented in the U.S. and the IDEA patent is not valid in some European countries like Luxembourg and Denmark. Salam-Shalom, Werner -- Die Gedanken sind frei.
