Subject: PGP/NAI merger and key recovery
Cc: [email protected]
Ed, I saw your recent remarks in comp.security.pgp.discuss. I'd like
to make a few points. You may quote me on this.
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Mergers are complex operations, especially mergers of publicly traded
companies of this size. NAI and TIS will not fully close the merger deal
for about 60 days. Until then, there are many policy details we cannot
discuss in public.
NAI has no plans to incorporate TIS's key recovery technology in any
version of PGP, including our business versions. I have discussed this
point with NAI management.
I have not changed my political values regarding privacy and crypto.
I would not have allowed the sale of my company to NAI if they were
going to buy PGP in order to bury PGP, as some have feared. They
bought PGP because they value the reputation that PGP has earned in
the industry. They want to preserve that reputation by preserving
PGP's product integrity. I plan to keep watch over PGP's product
integrity for the foreseeable future.
NAI plans to keep publishing our source code for peer review. Source
code publication in printed books is a vital part of NAI's business
strategy, especially its overseas strategy. There will be an important
announcement on this subject on 20 March at CeBit in Hannover Germany.

I'm just curious, and no offense intended, but Phil's signature is bad in the signed message. I'm using PGP 5.55, and it has his key in it, and it doesn't check out. "Things that make you go 'hmmmmm'".......
