James A. Donald says:
But reality is that they have produced by far the coolest browser there is, and they are bringing crypto to the masses, and you, and Eric Hughes, and most of us, have not yet brought crypto to the masses.
Give them credit for doing what we have talked of doing, but have not actually done.
You claim we haven't done anything and Netscape has. ftp.csua.berkeley.edu has the swIPe code sitting right on it. Its being deployed by TIS in their new firewall products, and is being used by others. I could have conducted the full PR campaign to get people using it, but have chosen not to because I don't want to have to later sell them on an (incompatible) IPSP packet format (which is superior). I'm already working on hacking swIPe into IPSP. Netscape looks foolish because they don't bother to look at other people's work. I won't comment on you. Perry
