Hi,

I dont't mind dropping *256, but I currently believe that SHA384 is the only secure hash in the SHA2 family, all other hashes leak their complete internal state. Length-Extension-Attack...
>From security point of view, I would drop SHA2-256 and SHA2-512, and promote SHA2-384.
But I do not know what that means interoperability-wise.

Best regards,
Philipp Gühring
