Hello!

I'm stuck right at the beginning. I can't find the "raw-keccak-256"
mentioned earlier in the thread. I looked in my local repo and used google
too but found nothing. Does it perhaps have a different name?

I don't know much about copyright issues. What does it mean that we can't
use them?
I guess we can't copy (parts of) the code, but is it a copyright violation
if somebody looks at it and then implements the hash function after they
have an initial idea about how it works?

Thank you,
Daniel
