I just noticed on the FIPS page what might be an error...

The HMAC row of the table has the following in the Modes column:
KeySize < BlockSize,
KeySize = BlockSize,
KeySize < BlockSize
Should one of those < be a >?
Yes, the second < should be a >. Thanks. I've fixed it.
If you have a similar question in the future, you can
first do a web search for "XXX Validation List", e.g.,
"HMAC Validation List". That'll bring you to a NIST page
with information on the algorithm modes that can be tested.
This information is also on our algorithm certificates.
Let me know if there's someone/where else to notify for this. I don't
want to spam the group with this little stuff...
I guess you can notify the vendor contact persons on
the FIPS algorithm certificates we already received.
E.g., http://csrc.nist.gov/cryptval/mac/hmacval.html#152.
