I'm curious if there is some way to either split a few pages or some method to keep pages with the same content up to date. For instance there is at least: Cryptographic_hash_function Comparison_of_cryptographic_hash_functions Hash_function_security_summary

They aren't always all in sync with each other and that's not to mention the pages for each hash function. Thoughts? Quelrod (talk) 18:24, 31 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

It would be very interesting if someone would take the time to gather license/patent information about the algorithms :) -LM

Putting attack on the complete algorithm and attack on reduced rounds versions in the same table is completely unreadable, mixing practical weaknesses and irrelevant to practical security ones...


From a causality point of view - RIPEMD can not be derived from RIPEMD-160, since the latter was in fact developed after the first.
