Java News from Sunday, December 7, 2003

The Legion of the Bouncy Castle has released version 1.21 of the Bouncy Castle Java Cryptography API, an open source, clean-room implementation of the Java Cryptography Extension (JCE). It supports X.509 certificates, PKCS12, S/MIME, CMS, PKCS7, and lots of other juicy acronyms. It also includes its own light-weight crypto API that works in Java 1.0 and later, and does not depend on the JCE. Version 1.21 fixes bugs. Download it while it's still legal.
