Noteworthy changes in version 0.6.5 (2007-10-27)
------------------------------------------------
* Cleanups for the key export and import functionality.
* Clarified the semantic of cdk_pk_check_sigs.
* Now the by usage keydb function correctly finds the
self signature.
patch-aa provided by drochner@; sent upstream, will be in next release.
Noteworthy changes in version 0.6.0 (2007-05-XX)
------------------------------------------------
* Dropped all internal random, cipher, digest libs and only use gcrypt
for such tasks. The library should only provide functions dedicated
to parsing and packet creation for the protocol.
* Adjust code for the new Libgcrypt interface.
Now Libgcrypt >1.2.2 is required to build the code.
* This new version introduces an API change and thus incompatibilities
to prior versions.
* Lots of cleanups all over the place. This also includes simplification
for various code parts.
* Better support for larger files.
* Map the libgcrypt error directly and remove the
invalid CDK_Gcry_Error type.
* Add more regression tests for the various code parts.
* We do not support ElGamal signatures any longer.
* Merged patches from the other opencdk branch which is
currently used by GnuTLS.
* Provide user callback for the stream. As a sample
implementation, socket callbacks are implemented
and use in cdk_stream_sockopen().
* Drop most of the rfc1991 legacy format. This means
we do not generate any rfc1991 data, but we still
understand it. An exception is the packet header output.
* Removed gnulib interface for now because the lib
is currently not in use.
* Interfaces changes relative to 0.5.x

Noteworthy changes in version 0.5.11 (2006-10-26)
------------------------------------------------

Langley.
* Fix crash in cdk_data_transform triggered by self-tests.
Noteworthy changes in version 0.5.10 (2006-10-11)
------------------------------------------------
* Fix double-free in cdk_pklist_encrypt, reported by Adam Langley.
* Fix keydb_idx_search() to handle keys at offset 0, thanks to Adam Langley.
* A pkg-config script was added, thanks to Andreas Metzler.
* Autobuild time stamps are used, for easier build robot testing.
All library names listed by *.la files no longer need to be listed
in the PLIST, e.g., instead of:
lib/libfoo.a
lib/libfoo.la
lib/libfoo.so
lib/libfoo.so.0
lib/libfoo.so.0.1
one simply needs:
lib/libfoo.la
and bsd.pkg.mk will automatically ensure that the additional library
names are listed in the installed package +CONTENTS file.
Also make LIBTOOLIZE_PLIST default to "yes".
Changes:
* Added a compile time check for vasprintf.
* The unsigned long types were changed to unsigned int.
* Internal message digest and symmetric crypto library to simplify to
include parts of OpenCDK into an own application.
* Huge interface and naming changes to enhance the readability of the
code. Several code cleanups which means some functions are not
public any longer. No backward compatibility to force client
applications to change the interface as soon as possible.
* Simplified API for listing keys.
* Extended key node (KBNODE) API to extract attributes more easier.
* Signature sub packet API is now public.
* Read-only support for revocation keys.
* Bug fix to prevent possible DOS memory attack.
* Support for literal partial body packets.
And more...
OpenCDK (Open Crypto Development Kit) provides basic parts of the OpenPGP
message format. The aim of the library is *not* to replace any available
OpenPGP version. There will be no real support for key management (sign,
revoke, alter preferences, ...) and some other parts are only rudimentary
available. The main purpose is to handle and understand OpenPGP packets and
to use basic operations. For example to encrypt/decrypt or to sign/verify
and packet routines.
