Hello tdsoc, Last friday I met Lorenzo after he briefly presented tdsoc inside this event: http://www.science.unitn.it/~sala/events2013/E-security.html (very interesting, by the way), and I was really pleased hearing about a local initiative for releasing crypto code with an open source license. I am interested in Cryptography since the end of nineties; I developed and currently maintain an open source project for digital signature of legally bounding documents on source forge: http://j4sign.sf.net . I am also involved in similar projects for PDF signature ( OpenSignPDF - http://opensignature.sf.net ) and XML Signature inside OpenOffice/LibreOffice ( ooo-xadessig-it - http://joinup.ec.europa.eu/software/ooo-xadessig-it/description ) I am also member of LinuxTrent, the Linux User Group of Trento and Province, for many years and currently the main representative, covering this position since January. I hope we could do something together for spreading "cryptography awareness" around, being FLOSS one of the best tools for doing that. bye, rob
