I'd like to see some evidence that Zimmermann was jailed. I was paying attention to such things at the time and I recall no mention of an arrest. There was a criminal investigation but no charges were ever filed and eventually both the 6th and the 9th courts ruled that cryptographic software source code is protected speech. In any case gpg is not pgp. -- John Hasler jhas...@newsguy.com Elmwood, WI USA
