I may be wrong, but IMO the prototype is the lest important issue
here.  What is important is to have the information about available
algorithms implemented (prefererably with limitations described).  All
I ask for is a canonical location to start further investigation.

Something similar to TODO file; it is not necessary to have the info
in a computer-parsable way (though an example install() invocation for
each guy would not hurt).  How to name the file?  Why not
NOT-INSTALLED-algorithms?
