Dear Yubico,

I'm really glad to see the latest release of Yubikey 5, I ordered two of them in a heartbeat. But I've also noticed that it's still shipping with the family inherited openpgp spec 2.0. Come on guys, it's 2018 now, and the 3.0 has been around for 3 years. Wouldn't ECC PGP Keys be an awesome? As someone who uses ecc keys on daily basis, I really would like to have openpgp spec 3.x on yubikeys.

Best Regards,

Luginbash

Honestly, lack of ecc in this area is one of the reasons I'm considering another vendor.
