Some included algorithms have got to be available for 'compatibility' with with _all_ OpenPGP usages. Discussion of Camellia is really out of context for GnuPG-Users since the vast majority do not have access to it and the few that do must/should recognize their exposure to 'Experimental' implementations. :-\ Camellia, in all permutations, is /Bleeding Edge/ and unless One is comfortable with the personal responsibility required of use of /any/ Alpha version should steer clear of even considering Camellia. Just My 2 cents worth.
