I thought you want to start using minisign because it's easier for code signing and verification than GnuPG. But now you are talking about some developers who don't know how to use OpenSSL library. I probably miss the point.
If you want libsodium in Fedora and develop your code against it nobody prevents you from that. Just submit libsodium for a review and become its maintainer.
Erm... libsodium itself has been in Fedora for quite some time now:
https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/libsodium
This discussion should only be about a tool that uses the library.
I'm sorry, I really didn't phrase this right. Of course the discussion may also cover the aspect of a much more widespread use of the library, I was just pointing out that the library itself is not new.
G'luck, Peter
