The answer is that I'm not planning on doing the SHA-1/SHA-256 interop
work except as part of my employment, since I'm kinda out of energy in
that area and it's a lot of work, and I don't believe that my employer
is planning to have me do that anytime soon.  Thus, if nobody else is
planning on doing it in short order, it probably won't be getting done.

I know Eric was working on some of the interop work, so perhaps he can
speak to whether he's planning on working in this area soonish.
