draft-eastlake-sha2 is indeed a personal submission targeted for Informational, like RFC 3174.

I'm fine with the reference being Informative. The FIPS document is the normative specification of the algorithm.

I believe that it is, indeed, near completion and I will be uploaded an updated draft in a day or two.
Due to the problems with SHA-1, I believe it will be given some priority even though it is an individual submission.

Thanks,
Donald

(I'm interested in other people's opinions)

Questions:
  Whats the timeline status for this document?  Is it near completion
  (on the order of weeks) or do you expect to have it advance by when?

  What track is it on?  Personal submission as informative?

  If the working group wants this, should to be informative or
  normative?

I think informative is right here (as the code reference isn't required, unlike the spec reference which must be understood).
