(id-GostR3411-94-CryptoProParamSet) in all situations. Given that all (?) IETF GOST standards use this param set, why not provide test vectors for it rather than the (otherwise unused) TestParamSet?My understanding is that the drafts are an exact translation of the official standard,
Yes, they are.
It is not "bad news", it is "obvious thing" concerning the fact that the purpose of this publication is to provide for the reference the translation to English of Russian GOST cryptography standards texts, so it can contain the standard texts only (no additions, no changes, no deletions).including the examples, as published in 1994. That kind of makes those examples reliable and official, but of course additional examples wouldn't hurt. Also, there is an example of gost3411-94 digest with gost3410-2001 signature in rfc4491.txt. The bad news is that only the source data and final result (signature value) are provided there, with no intermediate values.
The only thing we have done it that we consulted with the authors of the standards about proper English wording in some places where translation was not so obvious and demanded the deep knowlegde of the subject field.
