Hey Thomas, does anyone at Matasano still review submissions if someone wants to submit them for a particular programming language? I'm looking to establish myself as the luminary crypto nerd of the furry fandom :3


I don't know why you got downvoted. Maybe it's the furry thing. Cryptopals is still ongoing (there's a set 8 in the works, all elliptic curve attacks). As for posting the solutions: we're doing that, too, in the abstract, but we're all busy and every time we bring it up a bunch of people say "noooo don't post solutions".


Heh. Haters gonna hate.

Okay, very glad to hear that there's still work being done on that end. I'll start sending solutions in then :3


The downvotes are likely because he's not at Matasano any more.


I know he isn't.

But I always thought that Crypto Pals was a Matasano project. He should know if someone took up the mantle in his absence.


We are still working on new sets, though obviously the rate of new sets is pretty low. The mailing list is basically unmonitored at this point, but everything we've got is on the site. (This is a vast improvement on the previous state, where we regularly failed to set out challenges to people who emailed us, due to overload.)
