John,

It is not presently included in the system.  The class is self standing
and is well tested, and part of me likes including this kind of stuff
which does it's job well and does not interfere with anything else.

The argument against adding to the release system is that it increases
the amount of "stuff" in the released system, and as far as I know you
and I are the only one who uses MD5 in squeak.

Also, my hope is that the module work will allow this to be easily added
to a module of "goodies from the internet RFCs" which can then be
maintained separate from the main system, but easily used in any
application.

This is at least my take on this...

Mike
