[PYTHON-CRYPTO] [Announce] PyEGADS

PyEGADS is a Python wrapper for EGADS, which is a cryptographically 
strong pseudo-random number generator and entropy daemon. PyEGADS is 
cross platform, and open source.

PyEGADS is a Python extension developed with SWIG toolkit and Python 
programming language. PyEGADS provides cryptographically strong 
pseudo-random numbers and strings, and raw entropy suitable for seeding 
OpenSSL and similar libraries (a good OpenSSL wrapper for Python is 
M2Crypto).

PyEGADS seems to work fine on Windows, but experiences strange problems 
on Linux - any help would be appreciated. Some issues I'm having on 
Linux: setup does not do everything correctly and requires manual steps 
afterwards, crash or other bad state after calling destroy() (or 
sometimes after other functions as well).
