Re: [Classpathx-crypto] [ANN] GNU Crypto 1.0.0

[Casey Marshall]

A couple of points about the web-site:

1) The links at the top (most importantly the one that leads to the
   downloads section--which is at the bottom of the page!) don't
   lead to their "intended" targets! E.g. the downloads link is:

      <a href="#downloading" name="downloading">Downloads</a>

   which just scrolls the "Downloads" text to the top of the window
   (at least in Mozilla 1). The fix is to just remove (or change) the
   name="" attributes from the anchors at the top of the page.

2) In the "Reference Documentation" section, there could be links for
   Serpent and MD4. Similarly in the "Test Vectors" section for
   Serpent.

3) The cipherSpeed and hashSpeed tables should be qualified with how
   the programs were run (what JVM, what architecture, &c.).

Otherwise it looks good to me; nice work.
