   While browsing the GnuTLS NEWS file today, I learned that for a while, its distribution included a tool I wrote ages ago (CryWrap), and it was only removed in 2016, some 12 years after I stopped maintaining it.

   I didn't even know it was distributed with GnuTLS until today!

     I still have the original Gnu Arch repository for CryWrap. I should convert it to git and upload it for archival purposes, I suppose.

     Looking further, it was added in 2011, some seven years after I stopped maintaining it. They updated it to use GnuTLS 3.0 APIs, and bundled it with the library.

     I should look up my old emails, to see if they contacted me. They might have, but my memory doesn't go that far back.

     Software archeology can be such fun!
