Author here: In our case the vendor was very proven, but the tech and their approach to it was not. What actually happened is a bit more complicated than _abandoned_, but those words got the point across without delving into the irrelevant.

I wanted Lucas to link to Coda Hale's post on bcrypt (found by googling "Coda Hale bcrypt") in the blog post, but he edited that out. So it goes.
