So Fortify owned up the SHA-3 hash contestants. It's highly
embarrassing. I'm not sure why contestants were required to include a
C implementation, but in the future this should be a managed language,
like Java or C#. That would provide better results too, since people
would understand it easier and it would be optimized at a higher
level. Although, maybe anyone who submits code with bugs should just
be disqualified, because that's funnier?

Many cryptographers
Writing in C when they
Really should not.

Nevertheless, we'll for-
Give them because of the
Cryptanalytical
Skills they have got.
