60 /*----- Notes on the Digital Signature Algorithm --------------------------*
61 *
62 * The Digital Signature Algorithm was designed by the NSA for US Government
63 * use. It's defined in FIPS 186-1. Whether it's covered by patents is
64 * under dispute, although it looks relatively clear. It produces compact
65 * signatures, and is relatively easy to compute. It seems strong, if
66 * appropriate parameters are chosen.
