Great! I will read docs and souce code later.
I changed the namespace to std.util.digest. Andrei once said he
thinks
std.digest/std.hash is a too narrow package and someone else
said
putting crc into std.crypto.digest is ridiculous. So I did what
tango
and other libraries do and created a std.util module.
I think std.uuid would also fit well into std.util so it'd
become
std.util.uuid.
I disagree this point. The name 'util' does not make any sense.
'util' seems to be very subjective.
