Hi Charles, Nice work already. I add Scott to this thread to be sure he reads. As far as I remember he has a patch too but there was concerns about having argon2 support at this stage because of the current state of argon2 specs (or something along this line). Let be sure that these concerns are solved before considering to include it as it means some bc risks later if the specs change. Cheers Pierre
