Hey guys.

It's super handy that, under the "Files" section of a project, one can view the MD5 and SHA-1 hashes of a given file. It's a great place to check the hashes where the developer hasn't posted them on his or her site, or even to cross-verify them when he/she has.

Still, it's behind the times - MD5 was broken in 1996, and SHA-1 was broken just this year. Given these events, and given that most any modern computer capable of using SourceForge could probably SHA256 hash a file in a reasonable amount of time, it'd be nice if we could all switch to that sooner than later.
