The hardware situation is improving somewhat on these, so that is less of a concern now than back in the day. But there aren't really very strong arguments in favor of ecc, and in the case of quantum computation there less protection offered from ecc due to smaller key sizes. We also keep gnupg 1.4 in tree that does not, and will not, support ecc. -- Kristian Fiskerstrand OpenPGP keyblock reachable at hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net fpr:94CB AFDD 3034 5109 5618 35AA 0B7F 8B60 E3ED FAE3
