Minor correction: PGP first started using Twofish-256 for marketing
reasons.  The AES competition was in full swing and PGP Security
believed Twofish was going to be the winner, so Twofish-256 was
introduced for marketing reasons.  This was in PGP 7.0, if memory serves.

Once Rijndael was selected, it was introduced in PGP 7.1.
