The recently imposed "must be logged in" restriction is a response to increased bot traffic on the site. This affects search, commits, and vuxml pages.
Search engines are not blocked. Try using "site:www.freshports.org" and your search terms.
After the ports freeze to fix some stuff, the freeze is over. I have some work to do before FreshPorts can start processing commits again before it can start processing again. I've created an issue for that.

Description:
This is an easy-to-use implementation of ECC (Elliptic Curve Cryptography) with support for ECDSA (Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm) and ECDH (Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman), implemented purely in Python, released under the MIT license. With this library, you can quickly create key pairs (signing key and verifying key), sign messages, and verify the signatures. You can also agree on a shared secret key based on exchanged public keys. The keys and signatures are very short, making them easy to handle and incorporate into other protocols. This library provides key generation, signing, verifying, and shared secret derivation for five popular NIST "Suite B" GF(p) (prime field) curves, with key lengths of 192, 224, 256, 384, and 521 bits. The "short names" for these curves, as known by the OpenSSL tool (openssl ecparam -list_curves), are: prime192v1, secp224r1, prime256v1, secp384r1, and secp521r1. It includes the 256-bit curve secp256k1 used by Bitcoin. There is also support for the regular (non-twisted) variants of Brainpool curves from 160 to 512 bits. The "short names" of those curves are: brainpoolP160r1, brainpoolP192r1, brainpoolP224r1, brainpoolP256r1, brainpoolP320r1, brainpoolP384r1, brainpoolP512r1. Few of the small curves from SEC standard are also included (mainly to speed-up testing of the library), those are: secp112r1, secp112r2, secp128r1, and secp160r1. No other curves are included, but it is not too hard to add support for more curves over prime fields.
