The SET reference implementation was written only with a concern for protocol correctness and essentially no concern for operational usability. It is not clear to me that a product could be based on it without a lot of additonal work. But I suppose it might be useful for hacking... Donald On Sat, 8 Nov 1997, Robert Hettinga wrote:

Tomorrow's Bay Area Cypherpunks meeting will be held at the offices of C2Net Software in Oakland.
Agenda: o Andrea Liles will present some cool new ideas about virtual CA's.
o Lucky Green will demonstrate the Dumb Mouse, a universal chipcard reader, and associated analysis/manipulation software. If you are at all interested in smartcards, especially smartcards for crypto and authentication purposes, you don't want to miss this one. If there aren't too many attendees, we will host a workshop. Attendees are encouraged to bring any smartcards in their possession and discover what is /really/ happening on the card. The Cypherpunks Smartcard Developers Association will accept smartcard donations after the workshop.
o Cypherpunks Tonga will announce the release of BSAFEeay, a BSAFE 3.0 API compatible crypto library based on SSLeay.
o Cypherpunks Tonga will then combine BSAFEeay with the freeware SETref (which requires BSAFE for the underlying crypto) and demonstrate the first ever globally available *freeware* SET solution.
