Zergo Report

Thanks to Adam Back and Ross Anderson the full Zergo 
Report on encryption use by the NHSnet is online at:

   http://www.dcs.ex.ac.uk/~aba/ukcrypto/zergo.html  (139K)

There may be action by HMG to prohibit publication in the
UK (and maybe elsewhere) so we've mirrored it at:

Other mirrors encouraged.

OK.  I have downloaded it to my web site and, though it is not listed
in any index, it is available at
<http://samsara.law.cwru.edu/comp_law/zergo.html>.

But why do you expect HMG to try to suppress it?

It is crown copyright; a report paid for with our (tax payer) money,
copyright the government.  I think theoretically that they could use
that to control republication.  (They were offering copies by calling
a number, but it is now "out of print" or whatever, also paper isn't
as useful as a web page anyway.)

Lots of mirrors ensures there is little point them trying to prevent
it.

There is also a copy at:
