Hello OpenSSL team, patches extending OpenSSL's built-in set of EC curves by the Brainpool curves (see RFC 5639) have been around since 2010 - see for instance http://openssl.6102.n7.nabble.com/openssl-org-2359-PATCH-td41171.html http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2239&user=guest&pass=guest
Pleased to see that finally, three years later, they have been included in the upcoming version 1.0.2. - I have been able to verify this from http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/openssl/snapshot/openssl-1.0.2-stable-SNAP-20131125.tar.gz In particular since the usual NIST curves got under pressure recently: http://it.slashdot.org/firehose.pl?op=view&type=story&sid=13/09/11/1224252 it is important to have some less debatable alternatives available for general use ASAP. When can we expect version 1.0.2 to be released? BTW, I successfully applied to both openssl-1.0.1c and 1.0.1e the http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Attachment/32178/16797/rfc5639.patch . When using it to cross-compile for Windows under Linux using the ms/mingw32-cross.sh script, the dependencies of crypto/objects/obj_dat.h and crypto/objects/obj_dat.c on crypto/objects/obj_mac.h are not properly reflected. As a workaround to this problem, I inserted between the lines > echo Building the libraries > make -f ms/mingw32-cross.mak CROSS=${CROSS} the extra two lines > make crypto/objects/obj_dat.h > if [ crypto/objects/obj_dat.h -nt crypto/objects/obj_dat.c ]; then touch > crypto/objects/obj_dat.c; fi How does one cross-compile OpenSSL v1.0.2 for 32-bit Windows under Linux? Both ./Configure Cygwin and ./Configure mingw lead to various errors with 'make depend'.
