Thanks for doing this. I think many people will find it useful. I myself only implemented it in the easier case of degrees 3 and 4 (in C++: it is in eclib). For our paper Stoll certainly computed some examples, almost certainly using Magma, and he might be willing to donate that code. I also think that Marco Streng might have an implementation. John there is just a Quadratic Forms folder. I could create a folder containing just this algorithm, or I could rename the quadratic form folder and put it in there because binary quadratic forms should inherit form this algorithm.
