#78: algorithm agility discussion is inadequate

Comment (by [email protected]):

 From discussion on the mailing list (quoting Steve Kent):
 "Section 10 of 6962-bis-10 says:

 If necessary, the new log can contain existing entries from the frozen
 log, which monitors can verify are an exact match.

 To me, this suggests a connection between and old log a a new one, so
 they don't seem to be completely independent, as you suggest. But, I see
 you point that a new log will have new metadata and the fact that it has
 any ties to the old log is largely irrelevant (other than the somewhat
 mysterious comment above). There is a need to make available the metadata
 for each new log to all log clients. The issue of alg agility for log
 metadata
 is addressed via that mechanism (which seems to be unspecified).

 So, I agree that this issue can be closed, if Section 10 is revised to
 explain
 what I noted above. "
