Matthew, That is what I was thinking. Can you add a sentence in Section 5.2 to say that this is for the collection of SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512 algorithms? Otherwise, the two sections of the document don't match.

Speaking on the author's behalf, SHA-2 is defined as the collection of hash algorithms, including all of those cited (SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512). Do you believe it is critical to call this out explicitly? - m&m Matthew A.
