Re:
Also, concerning the PGP 2.3a/2.6/2.6ui controversy, is the only "problem" with 2.6 the fact that after 9/1/94 it will start reporting an incompatible version number that will make its output unreadable by older versions? If so, and if source code is available, why couldn't the date checking routine be located in the source code and simply commented out, then the whole thing recompiled?
So what stops someone from patching 2.3? Since 2.3 is already allegedly in violation, why not just make it compatible with 2.6? jpb@gate.net
