Why are the openssl man pages on http://linux.die.net more up to date than
http://www.openssl.org/docs?

For example, the cryptographic message digest SHA-256 has been around 
since 2004. The die.net man pages mentions it
http://linux.die.net/man/3/evp_digestinit

but the openssl.org pages do not
http://www.openssl.org/docs/crypto/EVP_DigestInit.html

I've looked through the various versions of EVP_DigestInit.pod in the 
OpenSSL CVS since 2004 but I never see a reference to SHA-256. 
http://cvs.openssl.org/rlog?f=openssl/doc/crypto/EVP_DigestInit.pod
I'm trying to use OpenSSL in an application and want to make sure I'm 
getting the most up to date information.
