From the authors: "NIST's current proposal for SHA-3 is a subset of the Kec=
cak family", "one can generate the test vectors for that proposal using the=
Kecca kreference code." and this "shows that the [SHA-3] cannot contain in=
ternal changes to the algorithm."
The process of setting the parameters is an important step in standardizati=
on. NIST has done this and the authors state that this has not crippled the=
algorithm. =
I bet this revelation does not make it to Slashdot=85 =
Can we put this to bed now? =
