Scott McGrath reported that the upcoming MS Steering Committee Elections are now in September due to the new Member Section policy, which was gone into effect recently. This revised Member Section Policy has been reviewed by the MS Steering Committee.
5. Update on BRSP-WG
Anish highlighted a recent discussion in the development of BSP11:
There is a concern that the TC has made the profile less interoperable from its previous incarnation.
The new draft relaxes the requirements from mandating SHA-1 to mandating either SHA-1 or any of the SHA-2 algorithms.
This is understandable given the issues with SHA-1.
The profile goes to great lengths to ensure interoperability when using SHA-1; it specifies how to communicate with the other side that SHA-1 is being used. See e.g. requirement R5421.
There is nothing comparable specified for SHA-2.
The fundamental reason the profiles were created were to enable interoperability, it makes sense to include the same level (or equivalent) of interop requirements for SHA-2 as there are for SHA-1.
