JXTA JSE currently uses only a very small subset of Bouncy Castle which does not include the IDEA cipher algorithm. We are currently using

- PKCS#1 Certificate generation.
- PKCS#10 Certificate Signing Request generation. (optional)

Note that in order to use these functions it is necessary for us to install the bouncy castle JCE provider which means that applications could access the patented functions. If you know of appropriately licensed alternative code which is limited to only these functions we would be happy to convert as doing so would free us from export control review entirely.

David Jencks pointed out that Geronimo had a similar issue and ended up duplicating that function into a separate module geronimo-util (allowing Geronimo to remove its dependency on Bouncy Castle).

Would that be an option for you?
