That's still a lot of code just to import a single 6 line function...

  The fact that he knew about that function and you (standing in as "representative Python developer") did not seems to justify the library pretty nicely from what I can tell. But, obviously, this code does more than Python's hmac library does, beyond just knowing how to properly verify the MAC itself.

    I wasn't criticising the security of this library, I was criticising it's reason to exist in the form that it does.

      Nice save.
