I was a little more definitive on this comment than I should have been,
my apologies.
Any comments on my response?
How far back does the SHA256 support go? Would 3.3.x or 3.4.0 be broken by
dropping the SHA1 sigs?

--- Comment #7 from Kevin A. McGrail <kmcgr...@apache.org> ---
Just confirmed that code for the support to use sha256 by default for rule
signatures and that sha1 is used as secondary if sha256 does not exist IS in
3.4 and trunk.
Rules updates will continue to create sha1 and sha256 signatures along with the
cryptographic signature.
For 3.4.2 code release, we'll add a sha256 and/or sha512 signature per the new
policy and NOT publish a sha1 signature.
dropping sha1 support for rule publication is not currently under consideration
due to legacy installations but we will mention that it's a concern to upgrade
to 3.4.2+ in the near future.
