Hi Marco, Speedups for libtommath would be of interest. I guess the easiest way would be to email me off-list with a patch or a set of the relevant files? I won't guarantee that I'll include the changes (given I haven't dealt with the LibTomMath code much in depth) though it sounds useful. I'm not 100% sure whether Tom is still interested in work on LibTom* or not - the releases page suggests not. Cheers, Matt
