-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Today in the Wall Street Journal and Bruce Schneier have described how how SHA-1 is broken as shown in the following URL. http://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2005/02/cryptanalysis_o.html The default signature hash in GnuPG is SHA-1. Though the signature is verified, it seems that Bruce Schneier and others seem to indicate that there should be a new hash made that is a lot tighter. What do some of you think? LeRoy :-) - -- Rev.
