They are functionally > identical, but it is illegal to use pgp-i in the US. Clarification: It's a patent problem, not a copyright problem. The RSA algorithm is patented in the US, and you need a license to use it. The RSAREF library, made by the patent holders, has a license, pgp-i source code (using Zimmermann's own code) does not. But the RSAREF license only allows non-commercial use. -- Please read <http://www.iki.fi/liw/mail-to-lasu.html> before mailing me. Please don't Cc: me when replying to my message on a mailing list.
