[edit] splitting the article

This article is focused on RIPEMD-160, so it's name should be changed to RIPEMD-160 and it should be epurated from general info. In RIPEMD should be placed a list of all RIPEMD's with more general information and links to all possible RIPEMD's pages (-128, -256, ...). --82.59.7.7 07:06, 20 September 2005 (UTC)

The other approach is to make this page more explicitly about the "RIPEMD family" (this is what we do in the article on SHA family, which covers all of SHA-0, SHA-1 and SHA-2. I would favour this approach, because otherwise you end up with half a dozen tiny articles on a similar topic. — Matt Crypto 11:39, 20 September 2005 (UTC)
