Hi Robert,

Good question. Chasing the RFC reference chains, RFC 6920 says that algorithms 
have the syntax 
        1*unreserved
where "unreserved" is from RFC 3986, Section 2.3. That section defines the 
unreserved character set as
        unreserved = ALPHA / DIGIT / "-" / "." / "_" / "~".

These are all characters that do not require encoding.

So I think we're good to go.

                                Thanks again,
                                -- Mike

Hi,

I just wanted to confirm that the names of "Hash Name String" in the IANA
registry are always such that they can be directly used in URLs without
encoding.  RFC 6920, section 9.4, didn't seem to specify any restriction, but
text if the rest of that RFC (that I'm not really familiar with) seems to
suggest/indicate that they use a restricted character set and hence are safe to
directly embed.

Thanks,
Rob
