-----------------------------+-----------------
 Crypto++ is under new maintainership, led by Jeffrey Walton. I'm one of
 the co-maintainers who participates in the private email discussion about
 what changes to make and so forth. IMO Jeffrey Walton is doing a great job
 of quality assurance, testing, careful implementation, code-auditing,
 etc., and I feel very good about increased safety/reliability of Crypto++
 under his watch. Here's his release announcement for Crypto++ 5.6.3:

 I think pycryptopp should upgrade to Crypto++ 5.6.3 ASAP (although I
 *also* still think that we should disable assembly optimizations ASAP! —
 #85 — most of the bugs and compatibility issues that Jeffrey has been
 fighting would disappear with that change!)
