-      TODO: <a href="https://golang.org/cl/186877">https://golang.org/cl/186877</a>: add hashing package for bytes and strings
+      This new package provides hash functions on byte sequences.
+      These hash functions are intended to be used to implement hash tables or
+      other data structures that need to map arbitrary strings or byte
+      sequences to a uniform distribution of integers.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      The hash functions are collision-resistant but not cryptographically secure.
     </p>
