Hi!

I was looking for a header-only library to compute SHA512 and found a very interesting project: The MaybeBoost Hash Library ( https://www.cs.mcgill.ca/~smcmur/hash/) that implements SHA/MD5 ect.

In 2010 there was a discussion (

http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/rfc-Preliminary-Hash-Library-td2668722.ht... ) about making it one of the Boost subprojects but nothing happened. Maybe some of you guys know what's the matter?

I think Peter Dimov was working on a hashing library for boost. I still think it would be a useful addition as we have duplicate hashing implementations in a few repositories. - Jim
