Hello,

I always thought, the official notation for "Secure Hash Algorithm #1" [FIPS-180- 1] was "SHA-1", and not "SHA1". However in the documentation I found many occurrencies of "SHA1". If someone is working on spelling errors, could that be changed?

Unfortunately RFC 3174 talks about "SHA-1" all the time, with the exception of the title that says: "US Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA1)"...

Regards, Ulrich
