Dear Ondřej,

As we have different statuses for the algorithm, I don't think the CFRG
adoption is required.

I don't think there are good or bad time periods to adopt nation-wide
crypto profiles. For me, the difference between the GOST profile and
hypothetical Korean or German profile is close to zero, and if anybody
brings such a profile for standardization, I'd like to support it.

As we have different statuses for the algorithms, I don't think the CFRG
adoption is required.

Speaking about the implementation, I'll have to put on the hat of the GOST
engine maintainer. The open-source implementation of the GOST crypto is
available in OpenSSL (as engine), LibreSSL (being the part of the core),
and GnuTLS.

The project activity of the gost-engine is limited by the coordination of
the life circles between the Russian Standard body and OpenSSL. The issue
you refer to is backdated almost two years ago, and I have some (rather
vague, though) plans to make a new release as some improvements worth
backporting appeared recently and some more are expected.
