glep-0063: Allow ECC curve 25519 keys |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
Optionally allow using ECC curve 25519 keys. We already have |
| 11 |
developers using those keys, and given that they are supported |
| 12 |
by GnuPG 2.2, there's probably no reason to ban them. However, they're |
| 13 |
not recommended due to interoperability issues. |

The larger recommendation was unjustified and resulted in people |
