Hi,

Good to see this work finally moving forward. I strongly support this once the following two issues are taken care of:

(a) Draft cites HMAC-SHA-256, and not HMAC-SHA-1, as a MUST. Any specific reasons? 

(b) Although the document adds support for HMAC-SHA-224, i dont see a value of B (section 3.3) defined for this.

John

The WG last call for the subject document will begin today and end Friday, May 22nd at 12:00 AM PDT. Please review the document and send your comments to this list. This version includes the Apad in the HMAC calculation consistent with the discussions we had in Philadelphia and SF.

Thanks,
Acee and Abhay_______________________________________________
