Could someone point me to information about the RSA129 factoring project? I would like the see the programs involved, and learn a little about the coordinating efforts. ----------------------------------------------------------- Russell Ross email: rross@sci.dixie.edu 1260 N 1280 W voice: (801)628-8146 St. George, UT 84770-4953

There's a PostScript paper, programs, and coordinating tools at ftp.ox.ac.uk:pub/math/rsa129 Jim Gillogly Highday, 20 Afterlithe S.R. 1995, 00:06
Speaking of RSA129, we were talking on mn.general about how interesting it would be to try another distributed RSA attack at a larger key (the number of 512-bits was thrown around). Are there currently any plans to attempt another one of these? I'd love to get our MasPAR cracking on something. ____ Robert A.

If you look at ftp://toxicwaste.mit.edu/pub/rsa129 you will find a lot of documentation on the RSA-129 project, including the call-to-arms, program distributions, papers, etc. I wouldn't call this the canonical site, but I tried to make available most everything that I could find on the project while it was running and afterwards. Enjoy! -derek
