Christian.Gohmann> My questions are:
Christian.Gohmann> - How can I distribute my code to have CryptOn2

You send the changes to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I can't guarantee
that it'll get, since that depends on both time and policy.
Christian.Gohmann> - I looked into the current snapshot and found a
Christian.Gohmann> lot of changes within the engine part. It seems to
Christian.Gohmann> me that hardware accelerated symmetric crypto and
Christian.Gohmann> hashing will also be supported by the future 0.9.7
Christian.Gohmann> release of openssl. How can I support you with the
Christian.Gohmann> 0.9.7 integration? Do I concentrate on the engine
Christian.Gohmann> adaption or on OpenBSD's /dev/crypto or on a
Christian.Gohmann> PKCS#11 module?
If you look closer, you will see that there is already an
implementation for OpenBSD's /dev/crypto. You may want to take a look
at it and try it out.
Also, you may have discovered that engines in 0.9.7 can be implemented
as separate dynamically loadable libraries. For an example, look in
demos/engines/rsaref/. This means that you can support the engine
part of your board and distribute it yourselves. We don't mind having
it as part of the source, but we can't absolutely guarantee that we'll
maintain it ourselves.
Christian.Gohmann> - Do you need some CryptOn2 boards to verify the
Christian.Gohmann> functionality?
If nothing else, I'd find it pleasing to play with that. On a more
serious note, having some boards and libraries from vendors to play
with can help us enhance the ENGINE framework to reach a higher level
of flexibility. After all, what we have implemented so far has partly
been to meet the needs of the hardware interfaces we've used until
now.
