Re: GNU SASL Summer of Code

Hi Simon,

Many SASL projects states that CRAM-MD5 should be avoided because it is
deprecated in favor of DIGEST-MD5. So, an inevitable advise is to
recommend users to use DIGEST-MD5 (as we do at [1]) for new protocols. 

Until now, I thought DIGEST-MD5 was fine. Why do you think DIGEST-MD5
should be killed? 

Thanks for your thoughts Simon!
