hecc-0.1. Marcel Fourné [5]announced the first release of hecc, the Elliptic Curve Cryptography Library for Haskell. Implemented are affine, projective, jacobian and modified jacobian point formats with the basic operations. Included as an Example is a basic ECDH as well as a basic speed test.
This is great news - I hope it finds its way into the crypto library. One question - is this license a derivative of something I would have heard about? IANAL, but have just read the license it sounds fairly permissive in that it doesn't mandate distribution of source code (BSDish). Was this the intent? Did I miss something? Thomas
