I'd like to request a formal review for the Hash2 library
https://github.com/pdimov/hash2 https://pdimov.github.io/hash2/
(by Christian Mazakas and myself.)
The library implements an extensible framework for implementing hashing algorithms that can support user-defined types. Its structure is largely based on the paper "Types don’t know #" by Howard Hinnant, Vinnie Falco and John Bytheway.

We're looking for a review manager.
Comments and questions are welcome; you don't need to wait for the review.
I will endorse the review of the library, and volunteer as the review manager. Since Peter is the lead author (383 commits to 39 for Christian at time of writing), I don't see a real conflict of interest here despite Christian and I both being C++Alliance Employees. In case someone else was going to ask I previously asked about SHA3 support. Peter's response on Slack was "this library wasn't really supposed to be a repository of cryptographic hashes, we had to have some to prove that they work in the framework". I thought this was fair and did not push the issue further. Peter also mentioned he would like to review the library soon, and December 7-15 seems feasible. I have no qualms with this time slot assuming sufficient reviewers are available. Matt
