Blake,

We are still using the X.208/X.209 references for ASN.1/BER since we
have never gone beyond using 1988 syntax.  (Note that the DER reference
is either X509-88 or X.660.)

In pss-01, I believe that draft-jonsson-pkcs1-v2dot1-00.txt 
has been released as RFC3447, so the reference "P1v2.1" 
probably needs updating.

Also, the SHA2 normative reference is not used -- it may need 
to be moved to Informational References or removed completely.

I remember some discussion about this at one point, but are 
we using X.208 and X.209 for references to ASN.1 / BER / DER 
instead of X.680 and X.690?  If not, then these may need updating.
