My code was integrated into .. <quiet voice>Tango</quiet voice> by one of  
that team, because at the time it was impossible to add things to phobos.

You can see it here:
http://www.dsource.org/projects/tango/docs/current/
(tango.util.digest etc)

I implemented all of those except for Whirlpool.  I still have the  
originals, which I started to tidy for inclusion into phobos .. at least  
that was the plan, I don't have a lot of spare time for this soft of thing  
unfortunately.
