Closing tickets in preparation for release of KSE 5.5.0
otto-dev requested Curve25519 support. kaikramer closed ticket after ed25519 support added. release notes seem to confirm this. perhaps this ticket should be re-opened as support added (although excellent) was different to what was requested?
@mdean187 I am pretty sure that Ed25519 is in fact what was meant, as we are here in the context of X.509 certificates and Java keystores.
@kaikramer yes, you got the context correct. So it comes down to me not understanding the details when opening the ticket.
Thanks for implementing this feature!
