Hi,
I was looking through previous GSoC ideas and I was interested in doing a crypto suite as described here:
http://www.crystalclearsoftware.com/cgi-bin/boost_wiki/wiki.pl?Google_Summer...
I was wondering if this was still in high demand, as I've been tied between doing this and the BigInt library proposed on the ideas page. The only reason I ask is because I'd like to do the most good for this project and wonder which project that might be.
Thank you for any input, Chad Seibert

Sure you want to do this from scratch? Botan uses Boost - why not ask Jack Lloyd if he'd let you pull bits of it down into Boost?
Well, as I'm writing the proposal, I'm more emphasizing the structure of generic implementations of crypto-like stuff, not the actual implementations of MD5, AES, RSA, etc. The second half of my proposal was on actual implementation, where I discuss using either Crypto++ or Botan, with author permission. I'm in the midst of getting that permission. _________________________________________________________________ The New Busy is not the too busy.
