It's late and I'm tired, but this article lacks information on (a) the input/output transformation stage, and (b) the subkey generator. [[User:Raul654|&rarr;Raul654]] 03:19, Mar 21, 2004 (UTC)

The IDEA applet link does not appear too useful, not in English and I saw no way to run a simulation.--[[User:Billymac00|Billymac00]] ([[User talk:Billymac00|talk]]) 19:24, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

== Patent expiration date ==
Line 82 ⟶ 94:
 
:Non-RS web sites, such as forums and blogs, are mixed, with many referring to a 2012 expiration, but I suspect they get their info from this article. [http://crypto.junod.info/2011/05/ One site] is express about that: "the European patent protecting the IDEA (International Data Encryption Algorithm) block cipher has expired a few days ago, on May 16th, 2011, and hence felt into the public ___domain. Note however that, according to its Wikipedia page, the cipher is still protected in the US until January 7th, 2012." [[User:TJRC|TJRC]] ([[User talk:TJRC|talk]]) 00:05, 6 July 2011 (UTC)
