Hi all,

Release 1.37 is a mixture of enhancements and defect fixes.  On the enhancements side we have new block ciphers (CCM, EAX, 
Noekeon), new stream ciphers (HC-128/256, ISAAC), improvements to PGP signature processing and compatibility improvements in CMS.

Defect fixes include trailing whitespace in PGP processing, some possible infinite loops in CertPathBuilder and 
SignedMailValidator have been removed, requesting DES, DESede, or Blowfish keys from the KeyAgreement SPI for Diffie-Hellman now 
returns correct key lengths, DSA keys are now serializable, a header problem with S/MIME signatures for non-sha based signatures 
has been fixed, and the default private key length in the lightweight API for Diffie-Hellman parameter generation was absurdly 
small and has now been removed.

As usual, the latest releases can be found at :

http://www.bouncycastle.org/

And for those who like living on the bleeding edge, the betas can be downloaded from:

Please note, make sure that beta feedback is sent to the [email protected]
address, and not the general mailing list (dev-crypto)
