 When will the OpenSSL community update the FIPS Module for v1.2 to
meet
 the new FIPS requirements that will be enforced by the end of this
year?
 
 Are you aware of the new requirements for Cryptographic Algorithms
and
 Key Sizes coming at the end of 2010 and do you have plans for them?
 
 
 We are fully aware of the new requirements. The current situation is
 documented here:
 
 http://www.openssl.org/docs/fips/fipsnotes.html

I assume there's a minor typo on that page:

The CMVP test lab and filing fees are more than pocket change
(~USD$25,00 and up) and beyond the financial resources of the OSF. 

Commas and zeros probably don't match the intended value.
