Hi all,
 
This release adds certifications with user attributes for OpenPGP, CMS
countersignature support, and VMPC-MAC. Speed improvements have been
made to the ASN.1 package. The CertPath validator now covers a wider
range of NIST validation tests. An error in IV handling for SEED and
Camellia in CMS has been fixed in addition to other bug fixes and
enhancements. See the release notes at
http://www.bouncycastle.org/releasenotes.html for details.

This release is also signed using a new signing certificate which will
not expire till 2013. We would like to thank the people at Sun
Microsystems for their assistance in getting the new signing certificate
organised. We would also like to thank the contributors who helped with
this release, they are listed in
http://www.bouncycastle.org/contributors.html
 
As usual, the latest releases can be found at :

downloaded from:

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

Regards,

David

PS. This is actually the second attempt at an announcement, apologies to
anyone who has received this twice, we've had some issues with our mail
server and the original posting seems to have missed a few places.
