I never forget IDEA. But using the module available from the FTP
server would infringe on the patent in most countries. Therefore it
is not usable for most folks.
Several folks have tried to convince Ascom to give a free license for
GPLed programs - but either they refused to do or didn't answer at all.
Even a charity organisation is not allowed to use IDEA - you can only
use it at home for your private mail with PGP 2.
