Hi,

Apparently bouncycastle uses a patented algorithm in their distribution.
Could someone from the dev team kindly let me know whether the RI uses
any of the patented code?

Thanks
Meeraj

Thanks for the heads up. We'll check with the jxta folks and see if they
use/expose the patented code.

We should move this discussion to tuscany-dev and report back to the
IPMC when its resolved.
