Hi.

I would like to give you my comments on JCE. I am in France and I need
to use Diffie Hellman and other crypto algorithm. The problem I have is
that I cannot base my software on JCE because you cannot export it. So I
need to go with packages like Cryptix.

I would like to know whether it would be possible for you to separate
the JCE into sereval parts : one would be the API definition, without
any code that cannot be exported, and one part containing the actual
implementation of the algorithm. This, it would be possible for people
like me to use interfaces like 'javax.crypto.Cipher' instead of using
'Object' just because I may use 'Cryptix'. It would help a lot !!

Hope you can help me... ;-)

Regards

Jean-Noel GADREAU
