I don't see why we couldn't switch the call to `sha1' to a call to
`secure-hash', which would allow for easily selecting between

Cancel-Lock for Gnus; changing to SHA2 possible?

[Peter Faust]

Hello together!

A few Gnus-users are interested in changing the cancel-lock from sha1:
to sha-256 or sha-512 for News/Postings with Gnus.

I found canlock.el for this function, and i hope someone can help me
to change this.

If this is not possible, please have a look at the following draft and
think about it, please:
