I don't think it's attribute extensible either. You'd have to define a new child element in the 1.1 namespace, I think: <MaskGenerationFunction Algorithm="..."/> >2. change URI for RSA-OAEP not to assume specific MGF (e.g. decouple to >allow change to MGF). This is a significant change to decouple MGF >definition from algorithm definition Wouldn't we have to leave the old algorithm in place also? So we're basically clarifying how the old one is supposed to work, and then adding a new version that adds MGF pluggability. -- Scott
