Use existing PGP (or other) public keys to generate DHE shared key?

I'm a newbie in all this so...

Is it a function of DH (conceptual) or implementation option to generate the resulting shared key from two (or more) existing public keys?

I can work with pyDHE if not but wanted to test the waters first.

add RSA for digital signatures

Add support for DHE_RSA. Unauthenticated DHE is susceptible to MITM attacks. Leave unautheticated DHE (so others can use DSA or so some weird things on their own. It's an API after all) but do add an option for effortless RSA.

multiparty keys

DHE can be generalized to allow multiple parties (3-?) to share a key. This is not yet covered by tests. Write some tests for it, play around, and if anything needs fixing to support that, do so.
