The standard already allows for all kind of curses. They are specified by an OID and I offered DJB to assign OIDs from the GnuPG arc. The original reason why I wanted an OID based design is so that it will be possible to use Brainpool curves which are preferred by some European institutions. I rejected the idea to make them the default in GnuPG to support better interoperability but also told people that we change the default as soon as we see people are using other curves. Meanwhile I don't think that we need a pool to settle on a different default. Salam-Shalom, Werner -- Die Gedanken sind frei. Ausnahmen regelt ein Bundesgesetz. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
