Well, we have developers using ECC (Curve 25519, to be specific). I don't really know enough about this to judge but we either need to allow at least this, or convince those devs to change to RSA. Would one of the following wordings be better: a) ECC, Curve 25519[, ...] b) ECC, curves supported by GnuPG version ... Alternatively, do you have other suggestions? -- Best regards, Michał Górny
