incidentally curve25519 is the one I'm thinking of that isn't standardized, although it is part of current draft version of rfc4880bis (but WG is stalled so no update expected any time soon there). NIST/brainpool are included in RFC6637, but we wouldn't want to accept them for various reasons. There are good reasons these are not provided in the regular interface of gnupg, but requires --expert -- Kristian Fiskerstrand OpenPGP keyblock reachable at hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net fpr:94CB AFDD 3034 5109 5618 35AA 0B7F 8B60 E3ED FAE3
