The Yubikey Neo has NFC which is how it is usable with android. There is a
video of it in action here:

Re: Random Seed for Generating PGP Keys

 Hello,

 I'm interested in seeing if rather than relying on the built-in software
 to generate randomness when creating a PGP key, if it is possible to
 configure GnuPG to use a manually entered random seed. That way I could
 generate a seed using coins, dice, my magic cauldron, etc.

 Is this possible to do? How much entropy in a seed would I need?

 I also imagine that folks might say the software is very good at
 generating random numbers. Feel free to share more details why, e.g. how
 many bits of entropy are provided and how to make sure they're truly
 random. But it would still be helpful to know if the above customization is
 possible.

 Thank you!

would it not be more reliable and simpler to use a HWRNG to generate
entropy?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_hardware_random_number_generators
has a list of commercially available generators, and i know i have seen at
least 2 homebrew designs that had source and HW schematics released.

Re: Cross platform working

per https://www.gnupg.org/download/index.html that would be GPG4win (
http://www.gpg4win.org/), there is only an x86 exe, but it works just fine
on x64 windows.

 It seems that a Windows version isn't available, is this right please?
 Lots of similar names, nothing from GNU?

might be better received at a cryptography based mailing list, also, do you
plan on releasing source?


apologies if this double sends, I've been having network issues recently.
