We'll be having our regular monthly meeting this Thursday, 7pm, at the
usual location [1].  The topic is: Cryptographic Hash Functions.

Elbie will be talking about hash functions, and attacks on hashing
algorithms, looking at MD5 in particular. There will be a few proof of
concept perl programs outlining various types of collision searches, and
some talk about effeciency, finding meaningful collisions, and forging
digital signatures.

There are rumours of POE.

If you'd like pizza, please RSVP if you please at:
