Description Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos 2016-01-13 16:11:59 UTC
Description of problem:
The SHA-3 algorithm is specified in FIPS-202. We should plan to have support for that algorithm in openssl somepoint at RHEL-7.x. Note that currently, this is in no way urgent, and should be prioritized as such.

Comment 2 Tomas Mraz 2016-01-13 16:34:51 UTC
It won't be completely easy to add as upstream will not add it to 1.0.x branch. Also we should probably wait for real user of the algorithm before we will spend too much resources to add it.
