------- Additional Comments From fitzsim at redhat.com  2006-07-07 14:36 EST -------
I'm introducing this package because currently we include the BouncyCastle JCE
in java-1.4.2-gcj-compat, whereas it really deserves to be its own package.  I
don't think BouncyCastle should go in Extras because it is a crypto library and
therefore needs approval by Red Hat legal.

The upstream BouncyCastle tarball includes the patented IDEA algorithm.  The
tarball in this SRPM has those sources and references removed.
