Hi there,
I have done an alternative SSH-client in java (MindTerm). I got a reminder
via email that it may be unlawful to use this code in the US. Also, that
the GPL states that if there are any patents involved in a product the
copyright-holder (me I guess) MAY put restrictions on distribution-area.
Does anybody know how one best handles this (i.e. GPL with "RSA inside")?
I thought RSA lets people use the algorithm without license for
non-commercial use, is this true?. Also, the rsa-ref stuff which I gather
can be used without a license, is it available in java? Also, what is the
duty for me as the "distributor" of an "RSA-using" bunch of code (given
GPL)? Should I just give in and stop distributing my stuff to be sure
nobody gets angry or what?
Cheers,
/Mats
