It is early in the FIPS process.  Design and planning stages.  At this point, 
we do not know for certain:

1. which algorithms will be validated;
2. what platforms they will be validated on or
3. when the formal validation will begin.

The decision making processes take time and while I'm confident some aspects of 
the first two points are known, they've not been formally codified.

Subject: [openssl-users] Could we have more details on the FIPS 3.0 plans?

Dear Reader:

I know that it may be early in the FIPS process, so the answer may not be 
ready.  Could you provide us with more details as to the objectives for the 
FIPS Object Module 3.0?  In particular, my company would like to know the 
estimated timetable for it to get certified, and whether Microsoft Windows 10 
Professional and Microsoft Windows Server 2016 are included.

(I had looked at the "FIPS module 3.0" wiki page, 
https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/FIPS_module_3.0 , but it has not been 
updated since Mar 14.)
