Re: md5 format decision

This should cause no problems with ASF boxes. We would prefer to see 
this format used.

As well, I'd like to make a recommendation that we make sure that when 
any files are created in the repository, that they are not group 
writable. More specifically:

Directories: group writable (drwxrwxr-x)
Files: not group readable (lrw-r--r--)
