Been playing with nostr project, trying to tweak the protocol a bit, found that secp256k1 is supported by cryptography project, the missing piece is schnorr algorithm. Any plans to support it?

I found that OpenSSL chose not openssl/openssl#8440 because

All algorithms and protocols should be recognized by a national or international standards body

we use openssl for our implementation of cryptographic algorithms, so in the absence of that, we don't have a path to implementation.
