[RSVP] What is the source of xxh32zero.go?

[sten0]

Hi @pierrec,

What is the source of xxh32zero.go? I'm guessing your ported the reference implementation, and that the unreachable url in xxh32zero.go is a form of attribution. Or is this someone else's work that you then built off of?

I was able to circumvent the other issues by excluding files mentioned in #178 and disabling associated tests. Debian ftpmasters are treating #194, this issue, as a hard blocker. Finally this issue is also blocking work on reverse dependencies, so please reply asap :)

Thank you,
Nicholas

Hi @sten0, sorry for not addressing the other issues, I maintain this lib on my freetime, and it has been very scarce!
I have updated the header of that file so it is now clearer on how this got built (you guessed right).
Let me know if this is OK.

It's OK, and as someone who also does freetime work, I know what you mean. Sorry for having to bother you with paperwork-type issues that take up free time. Aha, so it was a "shortest effective header" experiment! ;) I can confirm that before you committed the fix for this issue, it confused one person (not me), who is familiar with copyright review. *WOW* I didn't expect that fast of a reply and fix, thanks, and I imagine Cyan4973 appreciates it too.
