Is there interest within the Apache Commons project for a Java implementation of md5crypt? I have already written this code, and would like to submit it somewhere that it may receive use. This is a 100% Java implementation of the GNU glibc md5crypt function (as used in Linux MD5 passwords,etc) that depends only upon an MD5 JCE provider available in the runtime-- I suppose it could be modified to use the org.apache.java.security.MD5 class instead of a JCE counterpart if need be (assuming 'append' is functionally equivalent to the standard 'update' method). I am not on this list, so if you might discuss this amongst yourselves and let me know it would be appreciated. If this is not the proper list to propose this submission, please let me know as well. Cc'd to stefano, as author of org.apache.java.security.MD5....
