Just a heads up; PHO has written nice bindings to much of OpenSSL:

Thanks for pointing it out. It looks like PHO has done some good work there. - Hitesh

Shall we merge nano-md5 into this lib, and deprecate nano-md5 itself? Seems like a good time to consolidate, and produce a single openssl binding.

It's tempting, but I would really hate to lose nano-md5 as it is today. I thought your concept was a great idea to inspire people to start small to get a feel for developing Haskell libraries. The current nano-md5 serves as a really good example. In the Ruby community there are many small libraries that do one, simple focused task. There are times when this is a virtue over libraries that try to be all encompassing. It's weird but I would have thought the Haskell community would have more embraced small libraries also since they may be more composable. - Hitesh
