The IESG has no problem with the publication of 'GOST 28147-89 encryption, decryption and MAC algorithms' <draft-dolmatov-cryptocom-gost2814789-08.txt> as an Informational RFC.

The IESG would also like the IRSG or RFC-Editor to review the comments in 
the datatracker 
(https://datatracker.ietf.org/public/pidtracker.cgi?command=view_id&dTag=18976&rfc_flag=0) 
related to this document and determine whether or not they merit 
incorporation into the document. Comments may exist in both the ballot 
and the comment log. 

The IESG contact person is Russ Housley.

Thank you,

Technical Summary

   This document is intended to be a source of information about the
   Russian Federal standard for electronic encryption, decryption,
   and message authentication algorithms (GOST 28147-89), which is
   one of the Russian cryptographic standard algorithms (called
   GOST algorithms). Recently, Russian cryptography is being
   used in Internet applications, and this document has been created
   as information for developers and users of GOST 28147-89 for
   encryption, decryption, message authentication.

Working Group Summary

   This is not the product of an IETF WG; it is an independent
   submission to the RFC Editor.
