I think you guys should look Mike's page: http://www.geocities.com/one_mad_alien/. Look for the "crypted" things in the D page.

Great! Why hasn't he approached us/anyone to get these included in D runtime library?
At the very least they should all go into deimos.

Excellent - and also intriguing.

This stuff is all covered by the Cryptix general license. Cryptix is free stuff produced by a bunch of people called Systemics. I'm listed in their copyright page (http://www.ntua.gr/cryptix/old/cryptix/FAQ.html) under my maiden name, Jill Baker, as an inactive member, because I wrote some their old PGP port stuff some time ago. So I'm wondering, who is Mike? Have we worked together?

I'm inclined to suggest we keep Regan's Tiger implementation, and either I or Regan can add the rest to Deimos. (The Crytpix licence makes that perfectly legal). If someone can tell me who Mike is and how to get in touch with him, I'll let him know what we're doing/planning.

In any case, we now certainly have enough to put together a decent hashing architecture. This is brilliant!

He is also mentioned there: Mike Wynn.
You can contact him in dsource. He is in charge for the win32 lib.

You could try sending him a PM at dsource.org. He's in charge of a couple projects there.

Core32, http://www.dsource.org/forums/viewforum.php?f=16
L8night, http://www.dsource.org/forums/viewforum.php?f=17

Other than the posting a bug report last week, I haven't heard any news from him in the last few weeks. He might be busy with tasks unrelated to D. I'm sure he'll show up again. (At least I sure hope so -- I'm a big fan of his port of the Windows header files.)

I was wondering if anyone had thoughts on what I said just above?
