The long time awaited XML Security Library 0.1.0 with multiple
crypto engines support is available for immediate download:

This release creates a framework for integrating XML Security Library
with almost any crypto engine. As an example, basic support for GnuTLS and
NSS libraries is provided (digests, hmac and block ciphers; FIPS mode
for NSS
library is not supported). The information about new library structure
is available
in an architecture design overview
http://www.aleksey.com/xmlsec/architecture/design-overview.html
This is a pre-alpha release. It is *not recommended* for production
(please use
the stable 0.0.X releases instead). The new 0.1.X API and ABI will
defenetly change
other the course of next few weeks.
However, if you plan to use XML Security Library with a new (non-OpenSSL)
crypto engine and plan to write some code then you can start now. The
"backend"
API is pretty stable and I do not expect major changes.
As usual, any comments, ideas and patches are welcome.
With best regards,
Aleksey
