some asshole forgot to make PGP 5.0 freeware RSA key-generating
Okay, silly question here, but what's to stop someone from adding that capability once the source is available? (And if they knew they were going to publish the source, why not just add the capability in the first place?)
Because there is no reason for PGP to enourage people to generate new RSA/MD5 keys when MD5 is about to go downhill. The source is being scanned as we speak, UNIX versions will obviously be forthcoming soon, if you want to generate RSA keys, use PGP 2.6.2. Get a clue, --Lucky
