Spongycastle
I love geek humor. When researching encryption technologies for Android, I cam across an interesting project. There are similar projects out there, but this one takes top prize, purely due to its name: SpongyCastle. For those of you who don't get the joke, BouncyCastle is a famous cryptography library for Java and .NET. Android comes with a stripped version of BouncyCastle, but many Android developers prefer to use an updated version. Bundling BouncyCastle with your Android app can be problematic. Enter SpongyCastle. SpongyCastle is a namespace-translated jar of BounceCastle. This allows for easy inclusion in your Android app.
