This crate contains traits which provide generic, object-safe APIs for
generating and verifying [digital signatures].

Used by the [`dsa`], [`ecdsa`], [`ed25519`], and [`rsa`] crates maintained by
the [RustCrypto] organization, as well as [`ed25519-dalek`].

[Documentation][docs-link]

## Minimum Supported Rust Version

Rust **1.60** or higher.

Minimum supported Rust version can be changed in the future, but it will be
done with a minor version bump.

## SemVer Policy

- All on-by-default features of this library are covered by SemVer
- MSRV is considered exempt from SemVer as noted above
- The `derive` feature is stable and covered by SemVer
- The off-by-default features `digest` and `rand_core` are unstable features 
  which are also considered exempt from SemVer as they correspond to pre-1.0
  crates which are still subject to changes. Breaking changes to these features
  will, like MSRV, be done with a minor version bump.

for inclusion in the work by you, as defined in the Apache-2.0 license, shall be
