I think the function is fine in either hashlib or hmac. Putting it in one of these modules is a hint that it's security-related. On the other hand, linking to it from these modules' documentations is just as fine, if it is put in the operator module. If you make a C implementation, it could also be interesting to cover the pure-ASCII unicode case. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15061> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
