Do you think we can put your hash<> implementation under boost/functional/hash.hpp and have some short docs for it? Are you planning to improve the hashing algorithms (in particular for strings, which I guess it's the most improvable part)?
To be honest, I've barely looked at the hash functions so far. All I've done is change them to work on compilers without partial specialization. I'm planning to make improvements, but I'll have to do some research into the possible alogorithms first. If anyone has an opinions on this, I'll be very interested.
If I could have this in time for Boost 1.33 I'd be extremely grateful, since Boost.MultiIndex hashed indices (practically finished now) need a hash<>, and I don't think it is convenient that each library ships with its own version.
Certainly. I'll get something done this week. Daniel
