Anybody know of a reasonably good public-key encryption system which has
not been broken like the knapsack algorithm and is not patented like RSA?
We have an urgent application for such a thing, and I would rather avoid
patent infringement.  I haven't been following the public-key business
very closely, so I don't have a good picture of what's current.
