How would you then handle ciphers that accepts arbitrary key sizes? > Also, other AES-style algorithms, in particular, twofish and camellia, > could have similar changes as AES.

I'd say drop it unless someone has a use-case for it. /Simon _______________________________________________ nettle-bugs mailing list nettle-bugs@lists.lysator.liu.se http://lists.lysator.liu.se/mailman/listinfo/nettle-bugs
