and then this...
[from alt.religion.scientology, where net-activist Grady Ward is a subject of a lawsuit from the Scientologists...]
Grady Ward posted updates in his case of alleged copyright and trade secret violation.
"Word as of September 26, 1996 at 10:00 AM is that the technician who has been trying to 'crack' files apparently encrypted using PGP has admitted that 'he can make no further progress' after a month of concentrated effort.
"The disks will remain in a safety deposit box until the 'ho reveals any new plans for bringing in cryptography experts to assist in the analysis."
[the 'ho here is a nasty name for the religions key lawyer, Helena Kobrin] The trial is happening in San Jose, and I wouldn't be at all surprised if the attempted cryptanalysis is happening there, too. They've been working at it for a few months now. thad -- Thaddeus Beier thad@hammerhead.com Visual Effects Supervisor 408) 286-3376 Hammerhead Productions http://www.got.net/people/thad
