Beta1 PR deadline

[Dr Paul Dale]

Shane has done the IG D.9 work: it is in #12835 and is awaiting review.  I think it should be in beta if possible.  It’s mostly adding a second test case due to NIST changing guidance recently, so low risk and helpful for the lab.

As Shane notes in 12801, there will be some conflicts generated over the FIPS error handling and self tests, hopefully they won’t slow progress.

12754 could be considered optional and something better should likely be done for 3.1 that what I’m planning there.  With RAND_DRBG removed, there is nothing remotely comparable.  Even RAND_DRBG is a bit of a stretch as a comparison.


The API renaming discussion *must* reach a conclusion before beta.
