Crypto Rules Report

   In response to the December Financial Times article
   "Encryption Rules Coming," about an international
   cryptography meeting in Paris, and our request for
   additional information, we have received from nobody:

      Report of the Business-Government Forum on Global
      Cryptogoraphy Policy

      Held on 19-20 December 1995 in Paris

      Detailed Report

   The report includes meeting background information, notes
   on the speakers articulation of the positions of industry
   and governments, and four annexes:

   1. List of participants (EU, US, Japan -- biz and gov);

   2. Statement of Eurobit-ITAC-ITI-JEIDA which sets out
      20 principles of global cryptographic policy;

   3. Statement by the Infosec Business Advisory Group (IBAG)
      on 17 principles of international cryptography;

   4. The Mike Nelson Policy Problem (last point: "No one
      trusts anyone.")


   It would be great if someone would provide an FTP site. It
   is about 31 kb.
