Hi Wes,

We have noted your approval on the AUTH48 status page 
(https://www.rfc-editor.org/auth48/rfc9906).

We will now ask IANA to update the "Digest Algorithms” registry to reflect 
“DEPRECATED” for "GOST R 34.11-94” (to match "GOST R 34.10-2001 (DEPRECATED)") 
. We will inform you when the update is complete.

Best regards,

Karen Moore
