PBKDF2 new format hash
#2
Why do you not write your comments on trac directly?

What regards the trac ticket, I was asking for more details and where this hash type is being used (common CMS, other software etc) but we didn't get an answer for over 4 months. Hence, this seemed to be not a high priority ticket. Instead, the ticket even risked to be marked as "stalled".

IMO the algorithm is not different at all from Django's hashes, but the signature and output length are. That is why I was asking on trac what are the details and how we should implement it (for instance should we always compare only the minimal digest length allowed and make it a general format).

Please give the details on trac and suggest how this format should be called? Is this a general PBKDF2-SHA256 format or a very specific format only used with a particular software?
