  1. easy-ecc supports secp128r1 but the project seems to be abandoned, do you plan to add support of this curve in micro-ecc?
  2. Small question about public key, why is it ECC_BYTES + 1 in easy-ecc
    and uECC_BYTES*2 ins micro-ecc ?

Thanks in advance

  1. I don't plan to add support for secp128r1 in micro-ecc. The security level is too small, and the curve parameters are irritating to work with.
  2. In easy-ecc the public keys were compressed by default. In micro-ecc, most functions take uncompressed public keys, and I have uECC_compress()/uECC_decompress() to compress/decompress public keys if desired.
