Hi Creighton, May we challenge you into making a version of Crypto that is suitable for use by darcs? Right now, we are using SHA1 and SHA256. I recall seeing some remarks about the Crypto SHA1 implementation being more 'functional' but slower than the darcs one...
Thanks! (any chance you'll be at the Hackathon?)
