Hello, I've just released gnutls 3.0.9. This release optimizes several parts of gnutls, more prominent being optimizations in Diffie-Hellman and elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman key exchange. Moreover servers can now enforce their priority for ciphersuites.
* Version 3.0.9 (released 2011-12-13) ** certtool: Added new parameter --dh-info. ** certtool: -l option was overloaded so if combined with --priority it will only list the ciphersuites that are enabled by the given priority string. ** libgnutls: Added new priority string %SERVER_PRECEDENCE, which changes the ciphersuite selection procedure. If specified the server priorities will be used for selection instead of the client's. ** libgnutls: Optimizations in Diffie-Hellman parameters generation and key exchange. ** libgnutls: When session tickets are negotiated and used in a session, a server will not store that session data into its cache. ** libgnutls: Added the SECP192R1 curve. ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_priority_get_cipher_suite_index() to allow listing the ciphersuites enabled in a priority structure. It outputs an index to be used in gnutls_get_cipher_suite_info(). ** libgnutls: Optimizations in the elliptic curve code --timing attacks resistant code is only used in ECDSA private key operations. ** doc: man pages for API functions generation was fixed and are now added again in the distribution. ** API and ABI modifications: GNUTLS_ECC_CURVE_SECP192R1: New curve definition gnutls_priority_get_cipher_suite_index: Added Getting the Software ==================== GnuTLS may be downloaded from one of the GNU mirror sites or directly >From <ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnutls/>.
