Hilarie,

Bellovin's message re NeXT's elliptic crypto patent contains most of the
info we had.  We did do a little work to extend the system for signatures,
but it wasn't particularly deep.

I don't know what NeXT did -- or plans to do -- with its work.  I suspect
license issues are inevitably involved.

Steve
