[ann] pysha3 0.2.1 released

Show all headers | View raw

Hello,

today I've released pysha3 0.2.1 [1]. It's a standalone version of the
SHA-3 extension that I merged into CPython's development branch (future
3.4) a couple of hours ago. It provides the Keccak [2] cryptographic
hashing algorithm that was officially selected as SHA-3 by NIST a four
days ago. The module implements 224, 256, 384 and 512 bits digest size.
Arbitrarily-long output is not supported by the module as it's not part
of the NIST interface.

pysha3 is available for Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.2 and 3.3. It has been tested
on Linux (X86, X86_64 with gcc 4.6 and clang), FreeBSD and Windows (X86,
X86_64). 32 and 64bit Windows binaries for all supported Python versions
are available on PyPI, too.

Have fun,
Christian
