 /**
- * This is a hacked version of the sun.security.x509.AlgorithmId class from
- * Sun, allowing the x509 code to access protected methods (intended for use
- * only by the javakey code).  It would not normally be necessary to to
- * access these protected methods, except for the fact that the Cryptix
- * JCE does not have X509 support, and it was easier (and somewhat more
- * controllable) to make this hack than to add the necessary changes to the
- * Cryptix JCE.  However, the proper solution is to add the changes to
- * Cryptix, and this route will indeed be taken at some stage.
+ * This is a hacked version of the sun.security.x 509.AlgorithmId class 
+ * which is on it's way out.
  *
- * <p>
- * The modifications made involve a few changes to the <em>algOID</em> method.
- * A few extra cipher algorithm <i>aliases</i> were added, along with a change
- * to the algorithm identifier used for RSA encryption.  These changes are
- * necessary to successfully support X509 certificates that use the RSA algorithm.
- *
- * <p>
- * It is important to note that as long as the Cryptix JCE does not include
- * the necessary modifications required for X509 certificate support, then
- * this class must appear earlier in the classpath than Sun's version of this
- * class.  Once the JCE has been updated, however, it should be possible to
- * just remove this class from the classpath.
- *
- * <p>
- * JavaDoc documentation has only been provided for the one modified method,
- * <em>algOID</em>, and not for any of the remaining methods, since this
- * documentation is available with the original library from Sun.
- *
- * @see sun.security.x509.AlgorithmId;
