Jim,

Is there a reason you focused only on ECDSA and ECDH, rather than RSA
(PKCS#1 v1.5, PSS, and OAEP)?

Regardless of scope, the question you pose has been repeatedly asked and
left unanswered for several months. I appreciate the new calls for it, but
we are precisely in this position because of the multiple unanswered calls
in the past, on the list, from the chair, and from other implementors.
