Greetings boost-land,
We've been looking around for an implementation of the MD5 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD5) hash algorithm and came across a boost-oriented implementation by Stanislav Baranov:
http://www.garret.ru/~baranov/boost_md5/lib/md5/md5.html
Does anyone know if this was ever formally reviewed for inclusion in boost, or if there are other proposals or plans for message digest algorithms as part of boost?
I don't recall any proposal for that. While I'd like to see support for MD5 and related algorithms in Boost, I don't think this implementation has an acceptable license (because of the RSA clause). Regards, m Send instant messages to your online friends http://au.messenger.yahoo.com
