41 /*----- Notes on the IDEA block cipher ------------------------------------*
42 *
43 * IDEA was invented by James Massey and Xuejia Lai. The fundamental idea
44 * underlying the cipher is combining incompatible group operations. The
45 * algorithm's main claim to fame is that it is the symmetric cipher in PGP
46 * version 2.
47 *
48 * The IDEA algorithm is allegedly patented by Ascom Tech A.G., even in the
49 * UK and Europe. Ascom are willing to grant licences for use in software
50 * which forbids commercial use, but this is not compatible with Free
51 * Software Foundation ideology. The author recommends against the use of
52 * the IDEA cipher entirely. Blowfish is conceptually simpler, appears more
53 * concervative, offers a larger keyspace, runs faster, and is in the public
54 * domain.
