This is an excellent package, well-suited for a +class in cryptography. + +I have some questions about the migration to 3.x, and I apologize if I +missed this in the earlier discussions on this list. Is this really +hard to do, or is it just not worth the effort? Is there something +about PyCrypto, compared to other packages, making the migration more +difficult. + +I have no prejudice one way or the other as to whether PyCrypto should +make a big effort in migration. I have both 2.7 and 3.1 on my Mac, and +it looks like 2.7 will be around for many more years. + +************************************************************ * +* David MacQuigg, PhD email: macquigg at ece.arizona.edu * * +* Research Associate phone: USA 520-721-4583 * * * +* ECE Department, University of Arizona * * * +* 9320 East Mikelyn Lane * * * +* <A HREF="http://purl.net/macquigg">http://purl.net/macquigg</A> Tucson, Arizona 85710 * +************************************************************ * + + +Dwayne C.
