Hi!

We are pleased to announce the availability of eccGnuPG 0.1.6.

This is a project that implement a patch of elliptic curve cryptosystem
for GnuPG. And this is own first release over the 1.4.x branch. But
remember this is completely experimental!

In this release we improve the procedures, solve an ECElGamal IFP
weakness because of the low key length, and also we did more polite some
funtion calls.

The web site is:

Signed on:

And the hash:
cf868cfc93951b5ee662ef8ce52e66338013a7a8 for bz2.

Right now, we are thinking in the next step in development. If you have
any suggestion or doubt, we like to discuss it. And don't forget that
you can send reports if a bug is finded.
