The refactoring/FIPS work needs the question resolved about loading the legacy provider or not by default. We’ve been through this before on the project list [1] and in at least one PR [2].
I expect that its resolution will require an OMC vote. Regardless of the outcome, the current intention is that the low level direct access functions (e.g. IDEA_encrypt) will continue to work (albeit deprecated), only the EVP access will go (again, by default). Before the vote is called, are there any additional thoughts from the past six months?
