I was wondering if anyone has written(or has) a MD5 package and would be
willing give it to me. I have considered writing an interface package to
the c code distributed with the RFC but this approach would require too much
effort for someone else to recompile the source code. I have started writing
my own,but if someone else could save me the trouble of rewriting some code I
would appreciate it. I have checked the PAL and other web sources for a
package but haven't found one. Any help would be appreciated

I have (It has been done by Rolf Ebert) an implementation of MD5 in Ada.
I'll send it to you by e-mail. If somebody else wants, it let me know.

MD5 is a bit out-dated as a secure hash function and has been superseeded
by the ISO and NIST standardized SHA-1 algorithm. A free Ada implementation
of SHA-1 by Mike Roe is available on
http://www.ccsr.cam.ac.uk/projects/aes/
together with many other Ada crypto algorithms.

MD5 has not been superceded if a standard you are implementing requires MD5.

I think the use of the term "free" is a bit overblown here, as for
commercial purposes the answer seems to be "our lawyers will call",
followed by no further contact.
