ANNOUNCE: Cryptographic Library for Haskell

10 Jan 2004

      I would like to annouce a new release of the Haskell Cryptographic
Library (1.0.1). See http://www.haskell.org/crypto/ReadMe.html for more
details.

This library collects together existing Haskell cryptographic functions and
augments them so that they:

·       Have common type signatures.
·       Can be used with the standard mode and padding algorithms (in the
case of block mode ciphers).

This release includes much improved support for public / private key pairs
and contains:

·       DES
·       Blowfish
·       Cipher Block Chaining (CBC) mode
·       PKCS5 and nulls padding
·       SHA-1
·       RSA
·       OAEP
·       ASN.1
·       PKCS#8
