Hi all,
Yet another release of the BC libraries.
This release adds classes for supporting Time Stamp Protocol (TSP) as described in RFC
3161 and X.509 Attribute Certificates as described in RFC 3281.
In addition a problem OpenPGP had reading new format packets of 8274 bytes in length has
been fixed. Public Key fingerprints for PGP version 3 keys now calculate properly, correct
sorting has been implemented for ASN.1 sets and a bug introduced in the CertPath
validation in 1.25 has been fixed.
OpenPGP now also reads key rings that contain the GNU_DUMMY_S2K for in the primary key,
and the PKCS5 scheme 1 PBE generators for RC2 now produce keys rather than exceptions!
Finally the newwer version of PBEKeySpec which can contain a salt and an iteration count
is fully supported and the JDK 1.5 version of the provider now supports use of the JDK .5
Elliptic Curve classes and for J2ME users some further work has been done on improving the
performance of the BigInteger library. As always others have helped with this release,
especially with TSP and Attribute Certificates, you can find them in the contributors
file. Thank you one and all!
As usual, the latest releases can be found at :
http://www.bouncycastle.org/
And for those who like living on the bleeding edge, the betas can be
downloaded from: (when they become available)
http://www.bouncycastle.org/betas/
Please note, make sure that beta feedback is sent to the feedback-crypto@bouncycastle.org
address, and not the general mailing list (dev-crypto)
What's more the C# port is available at : (version 1.19)
http://www.bouncycastle.org/csharp/
The C# port has it's own email list, (dev-crypto-csharp@bouncycastle.org) so please use
that. The C# port will lag behind the Java port depending on the good graces of others to
keep it up to date.
Cheers,
-- jon
