IMHO the main problem for application and crypto lib developers is
the lack of a standard API. Crypto lib developers are designing new
APIs every time and application developers have to deal with the
different APIs.
=> there should be a standard class library which abstracts from
various algorithms and their implementation etc.

This would save time...

Ciao, Michael.
