David Do you can comment this altertatives or choices that we have?
We can support us in Bruce Schneier[1], Chief Security Technology Officer, BT
(schne...@schneier.com)
who is one of the person that knows many topics about security in the world. Is
a very nice person and allways is to able to help to people. One of his
knowledge areas is the hashing algorithm's desing and study, and we can ask to
him since his point of view which would be the best algoritm to do this.

Folks,
Here's what came out for Mozilla, which, I hope you'll pardon my
saying so, is a teensy tad more widely used than PostgreSQL has any
plans to become.

I suggest that we start by putting secure hashing algorithms into the
core distribution so, should MD5 ever break, we have real
alternatives, and not done in a panic.
Cheers,
David.
