+ -- Rewrote feeGenPrivate(). Hashes password and pads to (size of curve
+ order)++, then takes result mod curve order.
+ -- Added set_priv_key_data(), and removed its function from
+ new_public_with_key(); deleted new_public_with_key().
+ -- Initial changes for compiling on NT.
+
+CryptKit-13

+ -- Misc. tweaks for warning-free compile on NT
+ -- ifdef'd out DllMain()
+
+CryptKit-15
+ * First integration into cryptdev master tree, 12 Nov 1996
+ * CFILE_VERSION = CFILE_MIN_VERSION = 1
+ -- Added feeCipherFile and NSCipherFile

+
+CryptKit-16
+ * Integrated into cryptdev master tree, 20 Dec 1996
+ * Sent to J. Landwehr with first NT version of ICE 20 Dec 1996
+ * COMMON_PUBLIC_KEY_STRING_VERSION = 2
+ * COMMON_FEE_SIG_VERSION
+ * Major changes to keystring and signature format, compatible with
+ JavaFEE-4 and backwards compatible with older CryptKit keys and

+ * Verfified to work with ICE (JavaDemo-4) running on an NT server
+ -- Added debugging code to DES.c, MD5.c
+ -- Added mersennePrimes[24..26]

+CryptKit-17
+ -- New curveParams mechanism, with IEEE-approved curve parameters
+ -- Old curve param 'a' is 'c'; new params b, c, x1OrderPlus x1OrderMinus

+ it's an interim version for testing. DVT suite (ckutils/cktest) still
+ works at depths 0 thru 4.
+ -- NO API CHANGES since CryptKit-16.
+ -- key strings and signatures still compatible with CryptKit-16 and
+ JavaFEE-4
+ -- Deleted mersennePrimes[], set_crypt_params(), new_public_com(),

+ client's feeFEED calls to feeFEEDexp
+ -- New elliptic math using all curveParams fields
+ -- Cleaned up all which_curve/twist code to use CURVE_MINUS/CURVE_PLUS
+ -- plus curves now used exclusively except for in FEED decrypt, which
+ uses both curves
+ -- Moved all byteRep code from utilities.c to byteRep.c.
+ -- Added curveOrderJustify(), use it to trim private key data and
+ signature random data to [2, curveOrder]
+ -- curveParams[4] now has full parameters
+ -- ENGINE_127_BITS version, with hard-coded 127 bit elliptic() in
+ engineNSA127.c, no longer builds - obsolete (hopefully)

+ giant_cleanse(), data_to_giant()
+ -- Removed all *_to_hexstr and hexstr_to* code
+
+CryptKit-19
+ * First version known to be bit-for-bit compatible with JavaFEE.
+ keys, signatures, ciphertext, and cipherfiles. Tested against
+ JavaFEE-5.
+ * Integrated in cryptdev master 13 Feb 1997.
+ -- Broke backward compatibility with CipherFiles. CFILE_VERSION = 1.
+ -- First working 1:1 FEED, in feeFEED.c. Old 2:1 FEED, now in feeFEEDExp.c,
+ unchanged.

+ -- CipherFile uses portable byte rep; added CFE_FEED and CFE_FEEDExp types
+ -- New optimized numer_plus(), denom_double(), and numer_times()
+ -- Added maxShorts and minBytes to curveParams
+ -- Added explicit SIGN_PLUS, SIGN_MINUS as 's' arg to elliptic_add()
+ -- newGiant() no longer modifies CurrentMaxShorts or giant stack
+ -- Added FEE_DEPTH_192_M529891
+ -- Added feeFEEDCipherTextSize(), feeFEEDExpCipherTextSize()
+ -- Fixed platform dependencies in MD5.c
+ -- All borrowGiant() calls in NSFastEllipticCurve,c specify explicit
+ giant size (usually curveParams.maxShorts)

+ -- NSCipher returns nil properly on otherKeyData, sigSata, sendPubKeyData
+ -- Added enc64WithLines; dec64 ignores all whitespace
+ -- Broke out encrType-specific functions in CipherFile{FEED,DES}
+
+CryptKit-21
+ * Integrated in cryptdev master 7 Mar 1997.
+ * Sent to REC 7 Mar 1997.
+ -- Added curve depth = 3; q=40, k=213

+ -- updated Makefile for backup purposes
+ -- Moved NSFEEPublicKey interface into its own file

+ -- was iszero(); is isZero()
+ -- made bitlen() assertion conditional on FEE_DEBUG
+ -- Trimmed plainBlockSize by one byte if q mod 8 = 0 in feeFEED,
+ feeFEEEDExp. This is an incompatible change! But I don't think anyone
+ was using the last version....
