Hi Marek,

First I would like to thank you for your quick reply.
I just have one more small question :)
As far as I could see the ASN.1 is used basically to calculate the size of
the signature (at least on the ecdsa side). So if I know exactly the size of
the signatures then I can only remove the use of the ASN.1?

Thanks again
Eman
