pgcrypto deprecated functions?

From
Michael Fuhr
Date:
In README.pgcrypto, Section 2.3 "Deprecated functions" says that
digest_exists(), hmac_exists(), and cipher_exists() are planned to
be removed in PostgreSQL 8.2.  Those functions still exist -- should
they be removed or does that section need updating?

Yes, I see this text:
The `digest_exists()`, `hmac_exists()` and `cipher_exists()` functionsare deprecated.  The plan is to remove them in
PostgreSQL8.2.
 

Would someone address this?

Heh, I had it forgotten.  Lets do it.  Although there's no hurry with it,
delaying just will annoy more users.

Also, update my email address.
