-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

MIT is  pleased   to announce the    availability of PGP 2.6.2,   a free
public-key encryption  program  for   non-commercial use.    PGP   2.6.2
provides for   digital   signatures and  confidentiality of    files and
messages.

PGP 2.6.2 is  distributed in source   form for DOS/UNIX platforms.   For
convenience, an MSDOS executable is also part  of this release.  Because
source  is  available, anyone may  examine  it  to  verify the program's
integrity.

For Macintosh users MIT is currently distributing  MacPGP 2.6. An update
to MacPGP 2.6 will occur at a later date.

PGP 2.6.2 contains fixes to  many of the bugs reported  in PGP 2.6.1 and
MIT encourages all U.S. PGP users to upgrade.

There are now two ways to get PGP 2.6.2 from MIT:

1) The Traditional FTP based approach

PGP 2.6.2 is  available from MIT  only over the Internet. Use  anonymous
FTP to login  to  net-dist.mit.edu.  Login as   anonymous. Look  in  the
directory /pub/PGP.   In this directory,  available   to everyone,  is a
README  file a  copy  of the RSAREF license   and a copy   of a software
license  from  MIT. Please  read  the   README file and   these licenses
carefully.  Take particular note of the provisions about export control.
The README file  contains more detailed instructions on  how to get  PGP
2.6.2.

Also  in /pub/PGP is   a copy of the  PGP  Manual (files pgpdoc1.txt and
pgpdoc2.txt) and the  file pgformat.doc that  describes the PGP message,
signature and  key formats, including  the modifications for  PGP 2.6.2.
These  are  being made  available  without the distribution restrictions
that pertain to the PGP source and executable code.

2) Via the World Wide Web

Users  who have a  World Wide  Web  browser  which supports  "forms" can
obtain PGP 2.6.2 with the URL:

                http://web.mit.edu/network/pgp-form.html

This mechanism of distributing PGP avoids  the necessity of telneting to
net-dist and answering the  four questions (you  answer the questions on
the form).
