Hi all!
We're at an exciting point where it's actually possible to do stuff with
cryptography. You know what that means... time to start thinking about a
release! I'd like us to make a list of the stuff we think should be in our
first release. Here's my list:
* Figure out our packaging / bundling story with OpenSSL
* Finish binding OpenSSL to the point where JP can use it for PyOpenSSL
* The last two block ciphers that conch would need (CAST and Blowfish)
* Finalizing the iterator APIs for BlockCipher
* Padding APIs
Here's stuff I'm not sure about:
* Everything that conch needs (this means figuring out the API for RSA/DSA)
* GCM
* CommonCrypto backend
What do ya'll think, am I missing anything, do I have to much?
As a heads up: once we're ready to do the release and we've frozen a
release-candidate I plan to investigate getting it audited.
