Subject: Re: [PHC] Argon2 improvement thread
To all participants and the panel:
We are now seriously discussing major changes such as MAXFORM, and will
send a detailed reply on this issue tomorrow.
Regarding API. there is no objection to minor changes, but the hybrid (half
data-dependent, half data-independent) algorithm is a very delicate issue,
and we're still discussing it.
Merging Argon2d and Argon2i into one algorithm is a good idea to eliminate
code repetition, but we must ensure that a user does not consider them
equivalent.
Please do not hurry.
Best regards,
the Argon team
