I think there is nothing wrong or insecure with continuing to use |
| 8 |
SHA256, even though it is technically weaker than SHA512. If it is |
| 9 |
already included in all Manifests then keeping it as standard is |
| 10 |
preferable I think. |

Some people consider having a second dissimilar algorithm at hand a good |
| 13 |
idea. I suggest SHA3 in that case. |

manifest-hashes = SHA256 SHA3-256 |
