Contributions summary:Åsmund focused on adding RSA-based signature verification and generation capabilities to the `pyjwt` library, leveraging the `Crypto` library for cryptographic operations. They implemented support for RS256, RS384, and RS512 algorithms, modifying the `jwt/__init__.py` file. Additionally, they added usage examples and tests for the newly implemented RSA signing methods, writing tests using `unittest` and demonstrating the use of RSA keys. Their commits significantly expanded the library's cryptographic capabilities.
