Are technical specifications for these algorithms available in English? That would be at least one essential prerequisite.

Even though most of us are not native English speakers, English is our lingua franca. -Steve M. -- Steve Marquess OpenSSL Validation Services, Inc. 1829 Mount Ephraim Road Adamstown, MD 21710 USA +1 877 673 6775 s/b +1 301 874 2571 direct marqu...@openssl.com gpg/pgp key: http://openssl.com/docs/0x6D1892F5.asc -- openssl-dev mailing list To unsubscribe: https://mta.openssl.org/mailman/listinfo/openssl-dev
