werner edited projects for T5589: add context menu for normal operation after installation, added: gpg4win, FAQ, Installer; removed Feature Request.

This is a hard to solve problem in the NSIS installer: If you accidently started more than one installer they may both register files for update at the next restart. Now after the restart the file which is to be renamed does not anymore exist and thus a component or even library is not available. In this case it is GpgEX, the explorer plugin.

werner added a comment to T5590: OpenPGP: Curve 448, modernize?.

The major problem I see is that an implementation needs to add more crypto primitives to support ths curve. And we can expect that 448 will eventually get in widespread use. We already have all primitives but would inhibit the creation of minimal implementations.
