Comment 1 Jason Clinton 2003-06-10 21:33:00 UTC

Hashcash is a utility to prevent flooding a free service by requiring a user to run a bit collision using a CPU intensive algorithum for which backchecking is not CPU intensive.

IMHO, this makes this a good canidate for net-misc/.

This is an ebuild for hashcash. This is my first ebuild, so please tell me if
it's broken :)

I emailed the author of hashcash and  hashcash 0.27 should be released in the next couple of days. There should be some bug fixes in the next release. When it is release I will add it.

I added hashcash to cvs, I fixed up your ebuild and removed most of the comments from the template. Hashcash 0.27 was released today and I have added it to cvs.
