[Integrating more crypto code into Python] Please don't proceed in this direction. Crypto code has a long tradition of making world-wide distribution hard and painful, either to export, to import or to usage restrictions. There's a good reason why e.g. mxCrypto was developed outside the US, in fact I wrote that package because I couldn't legally export Andrew's code from the US. OpenSSL itself was developed in large parts in Australia for much the same reason. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg CEO eGenix.com Software GmbH ______________________________________________________________________ Consulting & Company: http://www.egenix.com/ Python Software: http://www.lemburg.com/python/
