Hello again,

as mentioned there is now also a new snapshot of the development
version: 4.0.0test2.

The previous snapshot introduced GnuTLS as new TLS backend, and a
modular approach to configure the TLS backend, and which backend is
used. First-class modules were used to achieve the required level of
modularity.

This version adds new bindings for GNU Nettle, the crypto library used
by GnuTLS. This makes many symmetric ciphers and hash functions
available, some even with support for hardware acceleration. The same
plugin approach as for TLS is used.

Read more about these concepts here:

http://projects.camlcity.org/projects/dl/ocamlnet-4.0.0test2/doc/html-main/Crypto.html

This ocamlnet version is not intended for packaging. Of course, any
feedback is welcome. Get the download link and the manual here:

NB: Of course, I'm also planning to support the "bytes" type at some
point. However, given the complexity of the effort (especially regarding
the interface design), I'd like to hear about the experience of other
OCaml developers first, and maybe the OCaml standard library will get
better over time, and make the task simpler.
