   For the purposes of the Crypto Policies change proposal [0], I think
I've settled to the following three policy levels (inspired by the ENISA
levels but with a rename of the good LEGACY level to DEFAULT). Any
comments or suggestions are appreciated.

Do you expect that the signature algorithm restrictions will apply to
the self-signatures as well?

No, not really. I will make it explicit, but I don't think there are
libraries that currently enforce restrictions on the self signatures.

I had this change in mind:

I don't know if similar changes were applied to other libraries when we removed MD2 support.
