Folks: We just announced a new secure hash function:
https://blake2.net I posted some arguments for why it is good over on the cryptography mailing list, where I expect to get some good pushback: http://lists.randombit.net/pipermail/cryptography/2012-December/003554.html I'm posting to this mailing list about it because the target use cases for this hash function are those where SHA-3 and SHA-2 are too slow (software implementations, small devices, big data), and where SHA-1 and MD5 are too insecure (open environments, ad hoc membership, valuable assets).
