I usually support any political statement against the US government, the Patriot Act, etc. because I believe that the US administration behaves like a headless beehive into which a stone has been thrown. They make a lot of things worse or unacceptable in their furious attempt to fix a corrupt system. Anyhow, this has got no place here, so REPLY PRIVATELY or to /dev/null (Reply-To set to protect the list). I don't think that FreeS/WAN should be radical about it and discriminate the citizens. While I would be careful to have active support from a US official, and would scrutinise all contributions twice as carefully, the average citizen is no danger! After all, they are being royalled screwed over themselves, so if they want to dedicate man hours to the development of cryptosoftware (which will probably soon be banned from the US), it is their cry for help because others are taking their rights from them. To make a long story short: I am certainly anxiously awaiting the point in time when I can use native Linux IPsec with a KAME userland implementation. Until then, FreeS/WAN does its job, and I care very little about the politics. -- Please do not CC me when replying to lists; I read them! .''`. martin f. krafft <madduck@debian.org> : :' : proud Debian developer, admin, and user `. `'` `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing a system Invalid/expired PGP subkeys?
