Hi there, Florian Weimer,

"effects and incompatibilities between GPG1.0.6 and PGP CKT 06"

The Cyber Knights Templar (CKT) builds have been produced with NAI's knowledge and I assume their permission from PGP 5.x and they even have a version of PGP 2.6.x. They take the NAI published source code and recompile it with enhancements. In fact, this is what happened with virtually all international versions of PGP, so I would now guess that PGP is a generic term. Surely the trademark applies to the various flavours of NAI PGP? As far as PGP 6.5.8ckt Build 6 is concerned, it is free for private use, comes with an enhanced version of PGPdisk, and a version of Samopal's PGP-ICQ that is linked to the binary of the build AND full source code has been issued. It runs faster than the old NAI PGP 6.5.8, is compatible with GnuPG keys (which the old NAI PGP was not) and most of all, it is supported, whereas the NAI version has been abandoned by NAI. - -- Graham <graham.todd@ntlworld.com> Please use my PGP/GnuPG Key ID: 0xE935DB9D Written on 08 July 2001 11:51:56 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (MingW32) Comment: Powered By Becky!2 iD8DBQE7SD6MIwtBZOk1250RAiRLAKDJeywLe5ATl3wh+tFe0WRHuG08sQCg9jyj wMPmBJ8ljf9HGIMBjWpEz+w= =dftg -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
