RE: RSA patent
No, it means exactly the opposite. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Ray Hodel Sent: Tuesday, July 27, 1999 7:00 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RSA patent Hello, I am curious what is going to happen when the patent for RSA expires next year. Does anyone know? Will that mean packages such as OpenSSL will be usable without penalty, for commercial purposes within the US? http://www.rsa.com/rsalabs/faq/html/6-3-1.html Thanks, Ray Hodel __ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List[EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: RSA patent
I think I mis-read your original question. For some reason I read "unusable", sorry. Yes, the lapse of a patent means the technology becomes available for all to use, freely. This is my understanding. -Original Message- From: Richard Levitte [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, July 27, 1999 1:53 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: RSA patent Uhmmm?

RE: 0.9.3 Beta 2!!!
I'm still having trouble with the Big Number library build, but I am doing on a Caldera v1.2 system that has known roaches. Sometime this week I expect to get in the latest Caldera v2.2 (Not 4 Resale), using the newest kernel, I will see then. BTW, it builds fine on a Caldera v1.1 system. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Ben Laurie Sent: Sunday, May 23, 1999 9:42 AM To: OpenSSL Announce Subject: 0.9.3 Beta 2!!! The beta 2 release of OpenSSL 0.9.3 is now available from the OpenSSL FTP site. If no major problems are found with this, the final release will be made tomorrow (Monday 24th May) some time in the evening (European time, likely to be around 20:00 GMT onwards). Please test this version thoroughly and perhaps we'll avoid a 0.9.3a for a change! ftp://ftp.openssl.org/source/openssl-0.9.3beta2.tar.gz Cheers, Ben. -- http://www.apache-ssl.org/ben.html "My grandfather once told me that there are two kinds of people: those who work and those who take the credit.
