Any chance we could get them? RSA and ECDSA is supported but not Ed25519 as far as I can tell (well, it doesn’t work).

Hi @lukehatpadl,

Currently there are no plans to add support for `ed25519` type artefact signatures. If your use case requires this, we can offer to add this as a so-called “roadmap acceleration” effort - let me know if our sales should get in touch with you - or alternatively, you can send patches and we’ll help with upstreaming.

Greetz,  
Josef

Low priority for us but I’ll take a look at preparing a patch when I’ve a moment.
