GSoc Proposal - Crypto Suite
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 _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail is redefining busy with tools for the New Busy.

I think you're allowed to submit multiple proposals. That said, there are likely to be many, many BigInt proposals, so it would probably be easier to stand out with a crypto proposal. I don't know what exactly that would involve, though, and many parts would presumably need to be built on a BigInt of some sort that's not yet in Boost.

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?
