Hi all,
Well, md5 might not be obsolite just yet but it is good if we start
planning on what to do next.
I'm proposing a lunar specific tool (lsum ?), a static binary that can
handle all the nice enc types we want (SHA-1, PGP/GPG etc).
It should be able to directly take in the VFY syntax (lsum md5:XXX..
file) and work in if's.
So what about this idea?
I also recommend that once we have a tool we move to SHA-1 as it said to
be alot stronger and that the ppl behind breaking MD5 has yet found a
good way to battle the SHA-1.
