-
- NIST will soon propose a Federal Information Processing Standard based on
- Draft 9 of 1003.2 (Shell and Utilities). The announcement will be published in
- the Federal Register, to be followed by a 90-day comment period. The
- proposed FIPS will exclude features that are expected to change in the final
- version of 1003.2, as was done with the FIPS proposal based on Draft 8.
- The details of excluded items will appear in the Federal Register
- announcement, which will also be sent to this list on the day it is published in
- the Federal Register (approximately 30-60 days from now).
-
-
- FIPS 151-1 (1003.1) is expected to be approved by the Secretary of Commerce
- within 3 weeks.
