Subject: WG Last Call: draft-ietf-smime-sha2-01


This message initiates an SMIME Working Group Last Call on the 
document:

Title     : Using SHA2 Algorithms with Cryptographic Message Syntax
Author(s) : S. Turner
Filename  : draft-ietf-smime-sha2-01.txt
Pages     : 10
Date      : 2007-7-25

This document describes the conventions for using the message 
digest algorithms SHA-224, as defined in [RFC3874], and 
SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512, as defined in [SHA2], with the 
Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) [RFC3852].
It also describes the conventions for using these algorithms 
with CMS and the DSA, RSA, and ECDSA signature algorithms. 

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-smime-sha2-01.txt

The purpose of this WG Last Call is to ensure that the Working 
Group has achieved consensus that the document is suitable for 
publication as a Standards Track RFC.

Please review the document for both technical and editorial problems.
Technical issues should be discussed on this list. Editorial 
issues may be sent to the document editor.

The Last Call period will end on 9 Janurary 2008.

Upon completion of the last call, the WG chairs will take 
action based upon the consensus of the WG. Possible actions include:

   1) recommending to the IETF Security Area Directors
      that the document, after possible editorial or
      other minor changes, be considered by the IESG
      for publication as an Informational RFC
      (which generally involves an IETF-wide Last Call); or

   2) requiring that outstanding issues be adequately
      addressed prior to further action (including,
      possibly, another WG Last Call).

Remember that it is our responsibility as Working Group 
members to ensure the quality of our documents and of the 
Internet Standards process.  So, please read and comment!
