IBM and TIS are definitely pro-GAK. TIS is selling a firewall that uses GAKked DES. IBM has been working on developing the "key recovery" technology. The article posted here a while ago that told of IBM's plans to support GAK also said that they were planning to license the technology to Sun and Netscape. I don't know about the accuracy of that last statement.
