hello guys,
below is, hopefully, the final draft of the announcement. shortly i'll
update the main home page to reflect the new download urls.
i'd like to take this opportunity to publicly thank Werner Koch, the
maintainer of GNU Privacy Guard, for his help in ironing the
export-related issue, and for allowing his ftp site to be gnu.crypto's
main download site.

Subject: [ANN] GNU Crypto 1.0.0
The GNU Crypto team is proud to anounce the release of the first public
version of the gnu.crypto library.
GNU Crypto, part of the GNU ClasspathX project, released under the aegis
of GNU, is a 100% Java implementation of cryptographic algorithms and
tools, and includes a Java Cryptographic Provider implementation to
allow its use through the Java JCA framework and APIs.
GNU Crypto includes, in addition to the now standard cryptographic
primitives (MD5, SHA-1, AES, etc.), implementations of new and
experimental cryptographic primitives and transforms such as Universal
Hash Algorithms (UMAC32, TMMH-16 v1), the Universal Security Transform
(UST), and others. GNU Crypto also includes implementations of some of
the accepted (2nd round) NESSIE (New European Schemes for Signatures,
Integrity, and Encryption) project such as Anubis, Khazad, Whirlpool, etc.
More details on the rationale, and contents of the library can be found
on the project's home page at:
<http://www.gnu.org/software/classpathx/crypto/crypto.html>. The main
download site for the deliverables is: ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/gnu-crypto/
GNU Crypto is licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public
License, with the "library exception."
