hash mode numbering logic
#1
Hi,

What is the logic behind the numbering of hashmodes

Code:
- [ Hash modes ] -

     # | Name                                             | Category
 ======+==================================================+======================================
   900 | MD4                                              | Raw Hash
     0 | MD5                                              | Raw Hash
  5100 | Half MD5                                         | Raw Hash
   100 | SHA1                                             | Raw Hash
  1300 | SHA-224                                          | Raw Hash
  1400 | SHA-256                                          | Raw Hash
 10800 | SHA-384                                          | Raw Hash
  1700 | SHA-512                                          | Raw Hash
...


AFAIK this has historically grown, but how are numbers assigned to new algorithms, any logic behind this?

I've checked github but couldn't find anything.
The closest reference I've found is https://hashcat.net/forum/thread-953.html but this is out of date and incomplete.

Sjohnny
