So Domino and SHA2.....There’s a SPR for that
As some of you know, SHA2 support in the native Domino HTTP stack has been a bit of a fire starter of late. As IBM like to say "we've not heard that from our customers", here's your chance to change that.
How do you do that? Simple, if you are able to create a PMR against Domino (if you're on support for Notes and Domino you can) and mention that you want SPR # ABAI7SASE6 (APAR LO48388) addressed. Here's link to the IBM support portal, so head on over there and create an PMR via an Electronic Service Request (ESR) http://www-947.ibm.com/support/entry/portal/support
The actual technote about IBM Domino *not* supporting SHA2 is here http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21418982
And because APAR and SPR are confusing, here's what they mean http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/fixlist.nsf/0/e9c65ccbfc70cf4685256f8f00784bad?OpenDocument
What are you waiting for? Go be heard.

Heard from IBM. Not sure if part of their form letter, or inserted by my analyst.
"We are receiving an increasing number of PMRs like this."
Either way... nice job, everyone. Keep adding your customers and companies to this SPR.
