If you have an opinion please indicate if: > > a) You favor SHA-1 > b) You favor FNV-1a I lean towards (a) from a purely political point of view: I don't think it's a good idea to train auditors to act reflexively. However, from a purely technical point of view I have no preference whatsoever at this time, but I'd like answers to my questions below. If the consensus is (b) then I think the following changes should be made: - Add an informative reference to FNV (and expand the acronym). - Refer to FNV as a checksum (or even hash, or better, non- cryptographic hash) rather than as a digest. In the context of TLS )RFC5246), "digest" definitely refers to cryptographic hash functions. We should not confuse the terminology. - Add a description of what happens if cached object checksums collide. No, the current security considerations section doesn't deal with this, and rightly so _if_ collisions are not a security problem, but what happens when there are collisions? Do hanshakes fail? Also, could caching have been done without reference to hash functions? E.g., by having servers assign IDs to objects for client caching? Is it too late to consider this approach? Cheers, Nico --
