README for Digest::SV1 version 0.01

This is a pre-release version of the SV1 hash algorithm.

This version has not yet been tested on some important alternate platforms that may be the source of implementation bugs;

• UTF-8 platforms
• non-uniform character encoding platforms
• big endian machines

So, as a precaution, please be wary of using this module to produce checksums on different platforms. If the test suite fails on your platform, please let me know ASAP on samv@cpan.org, or log a ticket in rt.cpan.org.
