Hello everyone,
I have some good news!!
NAI (Network Associates, Inc) has announced that they will shortly be
comming out with a command line version of PGP 6.0 (hopefully next month).
It will be another two or three months before the source code books are
published and a PGP 6.0i version is available. Once this is done I can
start work on an OS/2 port of 6.0 for everyone. Hopefully this will go
much faster than the last one did. According to NAI they have returned to
a PGP 2.6.x compatible command line and the old 5.0 command line will no
longer be supported.
I am also working on developing my own independent implementation of the
OpenPGP standard (RFC 2440) along with an OpenPGP SDK for software
developers to integrate PGP into their applications.
That's all for now, when I have more information I will let you know.
tks
