Hello,

As everybody is getting up :), I will try to find the time to finalize
our RC5 core.

It is a fully unrolled (and pipelined) core.

It is quite optimized (I'm a HDL designer) and the target is currently
Virtex4-LX FPGA (but it don't use much of specific features of this
platform).

It should fit in a LX40 device (18500 slices max) (no chance to fit
into a S3-200 :) ). Frequency should be around 200 Mhz (or more) and 1
key test per clock cycle.

I hope to give you good news in a few days.
Of course, the source will be given as there no commercial interest
for a high throughput key scheduler (which is the main part of a RC5
brute force engine).

PS: still remains the possibility of working on separate ranges,
dedicated to FPGAs (or others). At least at the beginning, before
finding a better solution.
