I don't have time at the moment to read the code. Could you summarize
which curves/algorithms/specifications you're implementing?

Contributions are welcome ;-) We'll see if I get any time to look into
it myself.

I guess I should put up a release TODO list on the web. Issues I'm aware
of and which I think should be completed before the next release are:

 * Fix the libdir defaults for linux.

 * Port libgrypt's LGPL:ed serpent implementation to nettle.

 * Overall license change to LGPL. Still not decided if it should be
   LGPLv2+, LGPLv3+, or dual license GPLv2+ and LGPLv3+ (in this
   notation, "+" means "or any later version, of the user's choice").

If it's going to take a long time to sort these things out, I could make
a relase sooner and postpone some or all of the above to a later
release. Main new feature since the previous release is the gcm support,
I think.
