Strawman for SHA-256 in S/MIME

2005-10-17 12:31:54

I have submitted a personal draft -- draft-ramsdell-smime-sha256 to address what I believe is consensus in the WG about this issue. There are some holes that need to be filled (specifically references for the exact threat, and guidance text for the use of the algorithm), and we need to decide on a final form (do we revise RFC3850 and RFC3851 or do we publish an errata document).

The boilerplate for RFCs dwarfs the actual content -- it's pretty simple stuff. When it pops out in the repository I will mention it on the mailing list.
