Yes.  GnuPG follows the OpenPGP standard, so any new algorithms would need to 
go through that process first.

As I suspected. Time to join a lobbying group, then. ;)
Thank you.

Future inclusion of Threefish in Gnupg?

2014-05-14 Thread Sin Trenton

Hello everyone,

Just out of curiousity, are there any plans for including Threefish into 
GnuPG?
Or does it have to be incorprorated into the OpenPGP standard first and 
*then* perhaps baked into GnuPG?


In simple curiousity and because I have a soft spot for Twofish[1]

[1] Soft spots are also known as chinks in your armour, I know, I know...
