suppose this not the main priority of the development team, since sha1 inside

Hello Marc, Smitha and everyone,
Just wanted to know the current state and level of SHA-2 support in Openssl
(as of Jan 6, 2012). Specifically, do we have a support for SHA-2 for SSL in
openssl 1.0.0.f or 0.9.8s?
Thanks!
