JXTA JSE currently uses only a very small subset of Bouncy Castle

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?
