Currently Curve25519 has an I-D but not for Ed25519: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-josefsson-tls-curve25519/ ?This document only describes usage of additional curves for ephemeral key exchange (ECDHE), not for use with long-term keys embedded in PKIX certificates (ECDH_RSA and ECDH_ECDSA). This is because Curve25519 is not directly suitable for authentication with ECDSA, and thus not applicable for signing of e.g. PKIX certificates.? -- Gerald Turner Email: gturner at unzane.com JID: gturner at unzane.com GPG: 0xFA8CD6D5 21D9 B2E8 7FE7 F19E 5F7D 4D0C 3FA0 810F FA8C D6D5 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
