Sean, I do not know what code was shown to you. But if you have seen the real code you are simply a liar. It would have been okay if you have asked Eric to just double license the code. He already said that he would give the code to the Trillian people. But your claim is a fucking joke. The chances that you and Trillian thought up the same code 1:1 is so minimal.... Everyone on this list who will look into the issue will not believe you. Just one example: why in hell should someone choose 64 byte for the keysize? The keys are decimal numbers. Even on 64 bit machines this are around 32 chars or so. So why in hell did you both choose coincidently 64 byte... Just one of many examples. And using atoi() instead of strtol() is still derived code. Ohh and btw: your parsers are not efficient and it would be trivial to write a far more efficient one with the use of memchr() Stefan Esser -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stefan Esser s.esser () e-matters de e-matters Security http://security.e-matters.de/ GPG-Key gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-key 0xCF6CAE69 Key fingerprint B418 B290 ACC0 C8E5 8292 8B72 D6B0 7704 CF6C AE69 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Did I help you?
