Randomise the seed

After running this a few times, on different environments, I've noted that my first "texhhash" username is always the same random value - seems like need to add some randomisation onto the base?
Yes, the hashing (hmac 256) is a deterministic algorithm, it will produce the same hash for the same input/secret combination. In my case it was necessary to keep foreign key constraints.
However, if you need pure random, I can add new option in the config file. Let me know!
Happy new year :) Im not sure it's an issue actually - I guess I was being naive and just thought it would be random random :) I agree it's an enhancement as you have labeled it, don't think hard to implement, but your call :)
Well not sure random will be very useful. I am closing this issue for now.
