thanks

Given the discussion so far at:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2792

I'm inclined to close this as a wontfix report.

You may want to review our documentation on key sizes:

http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/manual/html_node/Selecting-cryptographic-key-sizes.html

That table is based on research in:

http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/lenstra99selecting.html

We are open for discussion if you can provide better justification why
changing to AES-256 is warranted.

Note that changing the default for all programs is different from
_allowing_ AES-256 to be used in each program.  I believe you should be
able to use AES-256 with all programs that use GnuTLS.  If a program
using GnuTLS doesn't allow you to use AES-256, please file a bug on that
program.
