<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Hi all,</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">
The highest profile implementation of the bcrypt algorithm is currently the smarkets fork of erlang-bcrypt at <a href="https://github.com/smarkets/erlang-bcrypt" style="font-family:arial">https://github.com/smarkets/erlang-bcrypt</a>.</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">However, activity on this fork has not existed for a year now and I think we should reach a consensus on where this library should be officially maintained so everybody's patches can coalesce cohesively.</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">The issues I see now are build problems on various nixes, a very outdated bundled rebar, and a potentially thread safety issue mentioned here: <a href="https://github.com/smarkets/erlang-bcrypt/pull/9/files" style="font-family:arial">https://github.com/smarkets/erlang-bcrypt/pull/9/files</a>.</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">I am willing to do this and the fork would be actively maintained at the company I work at (Quark Games). However, I want to open up this opportunity in case somebody has already done significant work on the library and wants to curate it that I am unaware of.</div>
