Pushing for v1.0

nandoconde opened this issue · comments

Hello

I see the repo has been stable for a year and the number of stars is not too bad. Is there anything holding back a v1.0 release?

It would display a very good image of the maturity and stability of the cryptography ecosystem in Julia.

I think one thing that would be useful first is to solve #110. My understanding is that it should be fairly simple, we just need to check that all(data[end-padlen:end] .== data[end]), and if not, we should raise an error. Also, we would need tests for it.

Well, now that the small issues have been closed, what would be the roadmap?
Maybe updating the binaries to the latest Nettle?

@staticfloat

Since we're pretty convinced that the current Nettle binaries are stable, let's just keep with these and update later when someone actually needs a new feature. :)
