A question to the board:
Below is an excerpt from the article on May 5th that speaks of Microsoft's reworking of NGSCB to make it easier to take advantage of NCSCB. On June 30th, Wave released its CSP kit, which makes it easy to rewrite current applications to take advantage of trusted computing. One type of rewrite has to happen specific to NCGSB?

Juarez acknowledged that Microsoft is reworking its NGSCB technologies to enable independent software vendors and customers with a way to allow their existing applications to take advantage of NGSCB without having to rewrite them. He said that customers to whom Microsoft has shown early versions of NGSCB requested this change. He added that Microsoft will provide more details on how it plans to do this some time later this year.
Lee, MA – June 30, 2004 – Addressing the need for independent software vendors to more productively deal with the trusted computing market, Wave Systems Corp. (NASDAQ: WAVX – www.wave.com) today announced the availability of a Cryptographic Service Provider (CSP) that provides access to Trusted Computing Group (TCG)-compliant PC platforms.
Wave Systems offers a free TCG-Enabled Cryptographic Service Provider (CSP) developer's kit which allows developers to easily enable their applications to utilize the enhanced hardware-based security of a Trusted Platform.
