Hi,

The p180 DL computation was done some time ago; the code has evolved
since then, in particular the code for the descent. Therefore, the
parameters and the hint file won't work anymore, and it would require
some work to adapt them, so we probably won't do it.

However, our plan is to provide everything (complete parameters and hint
file) so that 512-bit DLP is completely automatic, with the hope that
users will be able to adjust them for other sizes.

This is a short-term goal, but don't expect this to be done in the next
few days.

Regards,
Pierrick
