Actually, this should be "about PGP [possibly] infringing on
patents".. He made a PGP key, but when the patent issues came up, he
destroyed everything. Now that 2.6 is out and santified by all
parties concerned, he has created a new key, which is on the
keyservers!
Just thought I'd clear the air a little it (I hope)
