Title: Deprecating the use of SHA-1 in DNSSEC signature algorithms
Reviewer: Thomas Graf
Review result: Has Issues

I'm assigned to do an early OPS DIR review of this document.

Thanks to the authors for taking care of this. I believe the document is in
good state, however I have one point for the IANA consideration section which
potentially needs to be resolved. I let IANA colleagues (CCed) decide.

The operational consideration section points an operator correctly to the
relevant IANA DNSSEC registries. Where the IANA consideration section updates
those registries according to the document intent.

However there is a possible mismatch when comparing the text in the IANA
consideration section of the document and the Delegation Signer (DS) Resource
Record (RR) Type Digest Algorithms registry. The registry currently lists the
Digest Algorithms, their status and its document reference. There is no "Use
for DNSSEC Delegation" field and "MUST NOT" appears to be not a valid status.
Further it does not update the reference with this document id, which leaves
the question to the operator unanswered when checking the registry why it was
deprecated. Therefore I suggest the following changes in Section 5:

Before
IANA is requested to set the "Use for DNSSEC Delegation" field of the "Digest
Algorithms" registry [DS-IANA] for SHA-1 (1) to MUST NOT.

After
IANA is requested to set the "Status" field of the "Digest Algorithms" registry
[DS-IANA] for SHA-1 (1) to "Deprecated" and add this document as reference.

I have seen IANA has performed a review on document revision -03 and did not
flag this issue and without "and add this document as reference" added the
document reference in the proposed changes.

Best wishes
Thomas
