Split of quantum-computing tag

We could also go for quantum-computing as a generic term, but then we would still have to specify additional tags to indicate what is meant. … I don't think that combining the tags quantum-computing and cryptanalysis is wrong in any way. However, my personal feeling is that quantum-cryptanalysis serves the purpose fine. …

Do we need a multiple-recipient(-encryption) tag?

Do we need a multi-recipient or multi-recipient-encryption tag? That would be used for MRES (Multiple-Recipient Encryption Scheme) specific questions? I think that MRES and related acronyms (MRSES for …

Are [crc] questions on-topic here, and should they be?

I think it is pretty obvious that questions that are just about CRC are not on topic here. The problem is of course that it would not even be clear to me where they should belong. Definitely not on ma …

Introduce "secp256k1" tag?

Yes, we should introduce a secp256k1 tag. This specific curve has become important enough to merit its own tag. b degnan: Besides that, people may not know that secp256 would be related to ECC and DS …

Introduce "secp256k1" tag?

No, we should not introduce a secp256k1 tag. Just a single curve specification is too specific to merit a tag of its own. Instead we could introduce a koblitz tag, as the curve is associated with a Ko …

Introduce "secp256k1" tag?

No, we should not introduce a secp256k1 tag. Just tagging something with elliptic-curve and / or dsa is enough.

Should keys-size be renamed to key-size?

I've simply gone ahead and merged it with key-size, without creating a synonym. I don't think it warrants one because it is just a misspelling of sorts (probably some questions took this tag because t …

Introduce "competition" tag

Should we introduce a "competition" tag and then convert the SHA-3-competition tags to that tag (together of course with the SHA-3 tags). … This could be more useful for people searching for the thing by name, and you might be able to use fewer tags. However, people may forget to tag it e.g. sha-3 as that is already in the name. …

Two rival tags, [tpm] and [trusted-platform-module], both for the same topic. Neither is off...

Agreed, these should be synonyms, and using tag [tpm] is best because although TPM has multiple meanings, it is unlikely to be confused within the field of cryptography.
