I initially used boost::hash, forgetting that the unordered containers have already claimed that name. A number of alternatives have been proposed, so I hoped to get some thoughts from the wider community.
The intention for the library is to provide concepts and some implementations for checksums (like CRC32), plain hash functions (for hash tables), and cryptographic hash functions (like MD5 or SHA-256).
How about boost::crypto::hash to provide a foundation for further crypto work in Boost. Otherwise boost::hash_algo could work. Rob
