  Description     : implementation of EdDSA in Java

This package is needed as a dependency of libmina-sshd-java and of new upstream
versions of jgit. I plan to maintain it in the Debian-Java team and to be its
first uploader.


This implementation of EdDSA is based on the ref10 implementation in SUPERCOP.

There are two internal implementations:
- A port of the radix-2^51 operations in ref10 - fast and constant-time, but
  only useful for Ed25519;
- A generic version using BigIntegers for calculation - a bit slower and not
  constant-time, but compatible with any EdDSA parameter specification.
