Sorry for the misunderstaing Tom. Let me ask a question then. I've stated I'm not comfortable with change to making SHA-1 the default value of the DigestMethod being SHA-1. (Implicit semantics are generally avoided). I plan to remove this on the next edits I do. *Whatever* algorithm provided in DigestMethod is used by RSAES-OAEP-ENCRYPT. However, regardless of the specified DigestMethod, SHA-1 is always used for the MGF1?
