Whirlpool 0.1

Whirlpool: Bindings for whirlpool hash reference implementation.

The Whirlpool hashing algorithm (http://www.larc.usp.br/~pbarreto/WhirlpoolPage.html), written by Vincent Rijmen and Paulo S. L. M. Barreto is a secure, modern hash which is as yet unbroken and fairly obscure. Provided on the algorithm’s page is a C reference implementation which is fairly simple to wrap with a Python extension, which is much faster than re-implementation in pure Python.
