Re: Revised ARC4 Hash Function Proposal

I like the way you call it "ARC4 hash" rather than RC4-hash. Which brings up the
question of whether the RSA legal team is at all stirred up about the other function,
"RC4-hash". After all, the name "RC4" is trademarked...


RSA did publicly announce that they would allow the term RC4 to be used to describe algorithms identical to trademarked RC4 algorithm. I think that was more than a year ago.
