See > <http://www.fortify.net/>. yes i just remembered this, how will this affect the debian packages? since there is no longer fortify available debian will either have to supply 128 bit packages or users will not be able to use the debian packages to get the 128 bit versions. since netscape is freely distributing 128 bit binaries should debian put them in non-US/non-free ? or perhaps netscape-blah-128-4.73 packages in non-US with the export versions in plain non-free ? -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
