- Arthur L. Rubin asks if sources to RSAREF are available, and worries about
- the possibility of a "back door."
-
- Yes, the sources are what RSAREF is. ripem beta testers, for example,
- need to compile RSAREF before compiling ripem.
-
- I have not checked the sources personally, so I can't rule out a back
- door, but they are there for anyone to check.
