Re: [Logic-security-developers] Cryptography Algorithms

[Greg T. <gre...@ya...>]

Hello, Alexander.

Although I haven't used any crypto libraries yet, I'm
familiar with the general ins and outs of using
Windows libraries, and would gladly help you to create
a suitable interface to them.

I don't think .NET is a great idea right now, as we
have a lot on our hands already. (Personally, if
Microsoft rejects C win32 in favour of exclusive .NET
when future Windows SDKs are released, I'm switching
over to Linux and not looking back.)

Perhaps we could try a .NET port after we have
finished a release in C.
