Hi all,

I finally joined the mailing list :-)

Two questions about potential contributions:

* Out of personal interest I have created/implemented the Fortuna (CS)PRNG
[1,2] (still WIP + needs AES256). Contrary to the Tiny Mersenne Twister,
this PRNG is bigger and slower, but more secure. I believe native/boards
with crypto accelerators could benefit.

* I ported U8glib [3] and got it working with a SPI LCD:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bG5_EwFTiDc. I already showed this on IRC,
but wanted to share this with the rest that hasn't seen it yet. It can also
emulate a display on stdout.

Would both be valuable contributions, or can I better wait for the
(hopefully upcoming) 'RIOT package manager' [4]?

Kind regards,
Bas Stottelaar
