Yes, I found ACF as well. It does have hash functions, but digital
signatures also require public key cryptography (or its moral
equivalent). Unless I'm missing something significant, it doesn't look
to me like ACF supports such things.
Is ACF dead, BTW? It looks like it has the potential of being a nice
project. Should it prove necessary for me to implement digital
signatures myself I might be interested in contributing the result to
the open source community and ACF seems like one option for that. I
wrote to the administrator of the project, but so far I have not gotten
a reply.
