13:01 < gmaxwell> Cute, https://eprint.iacr.org/2017/985.pdf  demonstrating derandomized DSA w/ sha512 leads to a pretty considerable power analysis attack vulnerablity.
13:09 < gmaxwell> they suggest adjusting things so that first block of the hash function input depend only on the key and input from an rng, and the second block depend on the message.
15:21 < gmaxwell> andytoshi: any idea on what we should do with https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1/pull/570  and similar?  I would really like good blinding in all our secret key operations, but the very same enviroments that need the blinding most also need to have their tables in flash.
15:22 < gmaxwell> One thing we could at least have is 'compile time' isomorphism blinding.
17:04 < gmaxwell> sipa: Unless you, andytoshi, or cfields protest in the next day or so, I'm going to politely close #549.  I don't think we have the interest or resources to maintain another build system, and effort to that end would probably be better served in writing better docs on how to use the library without any buildsystem at all.
17:12 < andytoshi> no complaints from me. i definitely don't have the interest or resources
17:13 < andytoshi> +1 to using the library without a build system. it's really not hard but i expect most people see autotools as a "there's no way i could build this by hand" stopsign
17:26 < gmaxwell> #315 is another cmake PR, so that goes in my prior statement.
17:40 < gmaxwell> Do we have someone we can nag to help review JNI stuff?  I know peterdettman does java, but I would MUCH MUCH MUCH rather ask him for mathmatical work.
17:54 < gmaxwell> there, 42 open issues, 42 open PRs... the github humors are now balanced.
