----------------- ** CREDITS.txt ** ----------------- All those who contributed somehow to the development, directly or indirectly, will be credited here. * Allan Saddi - implemented the basic SHA512 algorithm and released it under a BSD licence. * Tamas TEVESZ - Gave a lot of good feedback regarding the SHA512 password hashing algorithm and gave inspiration to implement a much better algorithm and also what became the the password hash cache. * Ulrich Drepper - Released a document into the Public Domain with code examples for a proper SHA512 password hashing algorithm, which inspired me to adopt most of this implementation into which became the current SHA512 password hashing algorithm. Most of the core password algorithm is based on this document, but combined with the already basic implementation of SHA512 hashing. See common/passwd.c for more details. * Larry Highsmith - Noticed a possible integer overflow issue in eDBopen_session_seed() which led to the fix in commit 80b41e27b7361633bee17c64bbb95490dc94ab9f
