It's kind of hard to modify the code when I'm still waiting for the PGP 5.0 code to be made available. I can't do a lot until people finish OCR-ing it.
Note that the scanning teams are looking for non-US volunteers to proofread the scanns. Each volunteer gets 100 pages. They must have access to a box with perl and a C compiler to process the per-page error correcting code. You *don't* need a scanner.
A lot of work that could better be spent in other areas. Why doesn't one of the many persons with access to the PGP 5.0 code already in machine readable form just mail it to the group doing the scanning and whatnot? (Using remailers, obviously. And even making it look like a porno image file. Whatever. Even easier: just put the source code CD-ROM in an envelope and mail it to Norway. "Duh.") This would shorten the process, and the Norwegian group could announce "We're done!!!" So, PGP employees, do it today.
