From www.jya.com/cn122297.txt quoting 15 December 1997, Interactive Week:
Network Associates dropped out of the Key Recovery Alliance. But there are plenty of major players left, even if they include some of the harshest foes of current crypto policy. Remaining members include:
America Online Inc. Compaq Computer Corp. Digital Equipment Corp. Entrust Technologies Ltd. Frontier Technologies Corp. Fujitsu Ltd. IBM Corp. Intel Corp. NCipher Corp. Novell Inc. RSA Data Security Inc. SafeNet Trusted Services Corp. Silicon Graphics Inc. Sun Microsystems Inc. Trusted Information Systems Inc.
Some of these players I would expect to sit at the key recovery table, but why SUN? Any of you California dudes know what's up with that? Am I right in assuming that the International Elvis marketing deal will never go through? --David Miller -- middle rival devil rim lad Windows '95 -- a dirty, two-bit operating system.

Oh, yeah. Thanks for bringing me back to reality. Let me share with you something a friend in school once told me: "Dave -- if you can't figure something out, the answer's probably money." I can't tell you how much time and trouble that one sentence has saved me in braincycles over the years... Sometimes we have to be reminded. --David Miller middle rival devil rim lad Windows '95 -- a dirty, two-bit operating system.
