Subject: [bug#32399] [PATCH] gnu: Add asignify.
Date: Wed,  8 Aug 2018 10:34:19 -0400

I wonder if we should mark this program as "experimental" or "not
audited?" It includes the features I'd like to have in a tool for
signing and authenticated encryption, but it hasn't received much
cryptanalytic attention, from what I can tell.

* gnu/packages/crypto.scm (asignify): New variable.

+by signify as used in OpenBSD.  The main goal of this project is to define a
+high level API for signing files, validating signatures and encrypting using
+public-key cryptography.  Asignify is designed to be portable and self-contained
+with zero external dependencies.  Asignify can verify OpenBSD signatures, but it
+cannot sign messages in OpenBSD format yet.")
