I believe the "plan" for md5 and sha1 and such is to use the much faster openssl versions "in the future" (based on a long thread debating future interfaces to such things on python-dev last summer). That'll sidestep any tedious license issue and give a better implementation at the same time. i don't believe anyone has taken the time to make such a patch yet. -g _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
