Hi all,

Yet another release of the BC libraries.

This release adds support for the GOST suite of cryptography algorithms, ISO 7816-4 
padding, and the Whirlpool message digest. In addition several bugs and compliance issues 
have been fixed which affect the CMS, S/MIME, and CertPath implementations, as well as the 
procesing of extensions on CRL entries. A bug which caused the file processing methods in 
PGPUtil to fail to close files after they were no longer needed has also been fixed.

Thanks especially to those who provided input for this release.  Both to assist in testing
new functionality as well as patches for issues and new functionality.

As usual, the latest releases can be found at :

http://www.bouncycastle.org/

And for those who like living on the bleeding edge, the betas can be downloaded from:

http://www.bouncycastle.org/betas/

Please note, make sure that beta feedback is sent to the [email protected]
address, and not the general mailing list (dev-crypto)

Cheers,
	-- jon
