Hello All! Fedora ships gnutls (and, probably, other applications) w/o SRP support, which was disabled years ago (in the era of Jeff Jonston). See technical description here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_remote_password_protocol Being curious lad, I quickly googled about its patents issues and found numerous discussion in the past. For example: http://www.pdl.cmu.edu/mailinglists/ips/mail/msg09292.html http://www.pdl.cmu.edu/mailinglists/ips/mail/msg08027.html >From these discussions, I found that patent holder provides a royalty-free license: http://otl.stanford.edu/pdf/97006.pdf I cannot find any other patent-related info at the dedicated site (created by patent holder): http://srp.stanford.edu/ Maybe it's time to re-add support for SRP back in Fedora? -- With best regards! _______________________________________________ Fedora-legal-list mailing list Fedora-legal-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legal-list
