NIST published a draft requirements and evaluation criteria for new
hash functions in a Federal Register notice on 1/23/2007( see
http://www.nist.gov/hash-function ) . This email is a reminder that the
public comment period on these requirements and evaluation criteria
will end in five weeks on 4/27/2007. If you wish to send comments for
consideration, please send them to hash-function at nist.gov before the
deadline. In case you are not aware of it, a hash forum has been
established for dialogue on the hash function competition. An archive
of the discussions is available at
http://cio.nist.gov/esd/emaildir/lists/hash-forum/maillist.html , and
is accessible with a password. Please see
