Andrew, name me one single acceptable reason (any *reasonable* reason at all) why we should not have a) a simple openly published protocol b) use OpenSSL directly to implement the protocol c) use OpenSSL to generate our own keys (and submit them to HeSA then) instead of this bullshit of intransparent API libraries, proprietary dongles, and 3rd party generated keys. I am not aware of even a hint of reason behind this nonsense. Simply by allowing a,b, and c we could have had ubiquitous use without resistance 5 years ago. But no, the brickhead mandarins must have it their way, even if that means the system will not be acceptable for the majority of potential participants Horst _______________________________________________ Gpcg_talk mailing list [email protected] http://ozdocit.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gpcg_talk
