Research direction
Start by reviewing the Devise documentation and the linked restful-authentication file, lib/authentication/by_password.rb#L30, for the algorithm details. Compare those schemes with the repository's existing password-hash support; done means both requested Ruby hashing schemes are supported and verified by the relevant tests.
