As has been posted in alt.security.pgp (which is really the right
place for this query):
MacPGP 2.2 is now available from anonymous ftp from
mac.archive.umich.edu (141.211.32.2 and 141.211.165.41) in directory
/mac/util/encryption.
I hope this helps!

Correct you are. I got a nasty letter today from the sysadmin telling me
I had better pull it off of my ftpable directory. Thank you, Mr. Sternlight.
From what it sounds like, the Attorney General of the State of Washington
has ruled that PGP should not be on the University systems in the State
of Washington.
I haven't been able to verify this, but under extreme pressure I have been
forced to pull the directory.
I beleive the only way to keep Mr. Sternlight from shutting pgp down
altogether is to have users put it up for ftp. When one person's ftp gets
shut down, have someone else you know take the files from you and put them
on the net.

Alright, enough is enough. I've had about enough of David
Sternlight and his "PGP is an abomination against God and Man" campaign.
Fortuitously, I've just finished up my conference submission, my advisor is
away for a week, and it's spring break here at Hopkins, so those annoying
little undergraduates won't be bugging me with questions about their
compiler projects. I think it's time to do a little coding!
I think I'll start work on "pgp-usa": the usable-in-the-Land-of-the-
Free version of pgp. Basically, I propose to rip out the portions of pgp that
implement the RSA encryption of the IDEA key and replace them with hooks
into RSAREF. The resulting package will therefore do no RSA encryption and
thus be freely distributable within the US. To use the package, the user
first gets a copy of RSAREF from rsa.com; since this is for "personal use,"
no license fee is needed. Presto!
Somehow, I don't think I'll have any trouble getting Phil Zimmerman
to let me use major portions of his source code! >}:->
This whole thing is ridiculous, and a sad commentary on the poorly
thought-out state of affairs in intellectual property law.

You must have come in the middle of our long discussions, and apparently you
have been taken in by some propagandists here. I've said publicly that I
think PGP an excellent program, and that I'd love to have a legal copy. I'd
support you vigorously, and even pay you a shareware fee if you can find a
way to do this legally in the U.S.

Why not do the whole job? I'm sure RSA would give you a license for use of
RSAREF in the U.S. just as they've done for Mark Riordan and Ripem. The
Ripem package includes the RSAREF code, and the hooks are pre-installed.
The tricky bit is to make sure you have the necessary hooks in RIPEM. If
you don't, you'll have to ask RSA's permission to modify RIPEM, but at least
one writer here has already done that and RSA agreed.
The other tricky bit is going to be IDEA, since you have to use that to
be compatible. You will need to apply to the Department of Commerce or
Treasury (dunno which) for an import license for IDEA. But we need for
someone to do this if we're ever going to be able to communicate with
European users of IDEA. I have some reason to believe that if you apply for
such a license, it will likely be granted, and fairly quickly by the new
Administration.

Here you are on your own. As it was explained to me, part of RSA's
"settlement" with Phil is that he agreed to do no further work on PGP and
not to distribute it. Phil is being very careful in this matter.

No, it is a classical policy dilemma reflecting the tension between the
government's need to read the traffic of suspected terrorists, drug
pushers, and military adversaries, the citizens' need for privacy, and
business' need to protect commercial secrets. There are no "bad guys" here,
just difficult choices.
