Hello!

I am designing a security sensitive application and I would like to use
Ada to develop it. This is something of a hobby project so it is very
low budget. In my application I need to make secure hashes and digital
signatures along with the necessary key management that implies. I'm
looking for a free (GPL or similar license) crypto library written
entirely in Ada. I don't particularly want to link to a C library since
part of the point of using Ada in this case is specifically to avoid C.

Does such a library exist? I've been prowling around on the 'net but so
far the projects I've turned up are very incomplete and inactive
looking.

TIA

Peter
