CLI
----------------------------------------

* Rewrite `tls_client` and `tls_server` to use asio. See `tls_proxy`
  for an example
* `encrypt` / `decrypt` tools providing password and/or public key
  based file encryption

TLS
----------------------------------------

* Make DTLS support optional at build time
* Make TLS v1.0 and v1.1 optional at build time
* Curve25519 key exchange
* IETF standard ChaCha20Poly1305
* TLS OCSP stapling (RFC 6066)
* Encrypt-then-MAC extension (RFC 7366)
* Authentication using TOFU (sqlite3 storage)
* Certificate pinning (using TACK?)
* TLS supplemental authorization data (RFC 4680, RFC 5878)
* OpenPGP authentication (RFC 5081)
* DTLS-SCTP (RFC 6083)
* Perspectives (http://perspectives-project.org/)
* Support for server key stored in TPM

PKIX
----------------------------------------

* Support multiple DNS names in certificates
* X.509 policy constraints
* OCSP responder logic
* X.509 attribute certificates (RFC 5755)

New Protocols / Formats
----------------------------------------

* NaCl compatible cryptobox functions
* Off-The-Record v3 encrypted chat protocol
* Some useful subset of OpenPGP
* SSHv2 client and/or server

Accelerators / backends
----------------------------------------

* Extend OpenSSL provider (cipher modes, HMAC)
* /dev/crypto
* Windows CryptoAPI
* Apple CommonCrypto
* ARMv8 crypto extensions (AES, SHA-2)
* POWER8 crypto extensions (AES, SHA-2)
* Better TPM support: NVRAM, PCR measurements, sealing

FFI (Python, OCaml)
----------------------------------------

* Expose certificates
* Expose TLS
* Write a CLI in Python

Symmetric Algorithms, Hashes, ...
----------------------------------------

* Bitsliced AES or Camellia
* Compressed tables for AES
* AES using vector permutes for NEON, AltiVec
* Camellia with AES-NI
* Serpent using AVX2
* Serpent using SSSE3 pshufb for sboxes
* ChaCha20 using SSE2 or AVX2
* scrypt
* bcrypt PBKDF
* Skein-MAC
* ARIA (Korean block cipher, RFCs 5794 and 6209)
* Extend Cascade_Cipher to support arbitrary number of ciphers

Public Key Crypto, Math
----------------------------------------

* EdDSA (GH #283)
* Ed448-Goldilocks
* FHMQV
* Support mixed hashes and non-empty param strings in OAEP
* Fast new implementations/algorithms for ECC point operations,
  Montgomery multiplication, multi-exponentiation, ...
* Some PK operations, especially RSA, have extensive computations per
  operation setup but many of the computed values depend only on the
  key and could be shared across operation objects.

Library Infrastructure
----------------------------------------

* Add logging callbacks
* Add latency tracing framework
* Compute cycles/byte estimates for benchmark output

Build
----------------------------------------

* Code signing for Windows installers
