Dear All,
I'd like to suggest that prime95/mprime be modularised, and that only the core
calculation component be kept closed source. I realise that the code for
generating verification codes must remain restricted, because that is the only
authentication that work has really been done and

Umm - actually the core calculation component is open source (but subject

If you haven't allowed it to use this much memory, then it's a bug,
otherwise its a feature.
