Hey, I found the discussion in this newsgroup linked to below. It was last posted to in 2010. Looked like ECC support was coming, but as far as I can tell GPG doesn't support ECC yet. Is it on it's way?
I was just thinking maybe the messages could be short enough yet moderately secure, to send over SMS, due to the shorter key sizes? You wouldn't get much payload space, but maybe a little? In any case ECC is the way of the future for public key crypto is it not? So it's really a pretty desirable feature. I just found out bitcoin is based on ECC. http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2010-April/038647.html _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
