I’m pleased to announce Guile-Gcrypt version 0.2.0:

  git clone https://notabug.org/cwebber/guile-gcrypt.git
  cd guile-gcrypt
  git checkout v0.2.0  # or 17b1225b2b65acf7038753277e95fd95fbede1a3
  git tag -v v0.2.0

The ‘git tag -v’ command checks the authenticity of your checkout.
You may need to retrieve the signing key first:

  gpg --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net \

Guile-Gcrypt provides Guile 2.x/3.0 bindings to the GNU Libgcrypt
cryptography library.  It provides modules for cryptographic hash
functions, message authentication codes (MAC), public-key cryptography,
strong randomness, and more.

Excerpt from the ‘NEWS’ file:

  * Changes in 0.2.0 (since 0.1.0)

  ** (gcrypt hash) now exposes all the algorithms supported by Libgcrypt
  ** (guix mac) now exposes all the MAC algorithms, not just HMAC
  ** (guix hmac) is deprecated in favor of (guix mac)
  ** Guile-Gcrypt can now be compiled with Guile 2.9 (future 3.0)
  ** Guile-Gcrypt can now be cross-compiled

Guile-Gcrypt does not currently wrap all the Libgcrypt API.  Your help
in improving it is very welcome!  For bug reports and patches, see:

Plain email to Chris or myself or guile-user would also work fine.  :-)
