Gouania
Gouania is a genus of flowering plants in the family Rhamnaceae. The 50 to 70 species it contains are native to tropical and subtropical regions of the world, including Africa, Madagascar, the Indian Ocean islands, southern Asia, the Americas and Hawaii. They are shrubs or lianas. A revision of the species in Madagascar and the other western Indian Ocean islands is in preparation, where the genus has an important centre of diversity. The work will recognise several new species.

gollark: ChaCha20 might be better for CC, since it's apparently more lightweight.
gollark: You probably want authenticated encryption for most things, too, which exists in one library, but it isn't obvious that that is actually the necessary thing.
gollark: Also, there are no sane-defaults convenience wrappers for stuff like "sign/verify data with secret key", "encrypt bytes", etc., like I think "LibNaCl" has in the "real" world.
gollark: I see.
gollark: To what?
