Cryptography Team Package released on SqueakMap

All,

The cryptography team has released a consolidated package on
squeak map.

This release is the result of hard work of the Cryptography
Team. The latest
team was formed in 2005. This release comes on 4/23/2007.
Please see the
squeak source repository for more cryptography including SSL
and SMime.

The cryptography package provides some basic cryptographic
algorithms and
protocols. This change set integrates algorithms implemented
by several
members of the Squeak community, including Ron Teitelbaum,
Robert Withers,
Chris Muller, Hans-Martin Mosner, Leandro Caniglia, John
Maloney, Duane
Maxwell, Luciano Notarfrancesco and Carlos Sarraute. There
isn't much
documentation, but browsing the tests (CryptoTest) will give
you a pretty
good idea of how to use it.

This package includes: 
. Symmetric key algorithms: DES, 3DES, AES (Rijndael), ARC4,
ARC2 
. Block cipher modes: CBC, CFB, OFB 
. Hash functions: MD4, MD5, SHA1, SHA256 
. Public key algorithms: DSA, ElGamal, RSA 
. Other stuff: HMACs, Diffie-Hellman, a random pool, a
secure prng, a primes
finder 
. ASN.1 support 
. X509 v3 certificates 
. Support for PKCS Files 

Happy Coding!

Squeak Cryptography Team Leader
