Dear IANA,

Now that https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-cose-dilithium/ has been 
submitted to the IESG for publication, I'm writing as COSE chair to request 
early allocation of the remaining registry entries requested in the 
specification.  Recall that the early allocations requested in the message 
below were performed under [IANA #1416863].

The additional values to allocate are in the sections:

  *   8.1.3.2. 
<https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-cose-dilithium-08.html#section-8.1.3.2>
 AKP Private 
Key<https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-cose-dilithium-08.html#name-akp-private-key>
  *   8.1.6.2. 
<https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-cose-dilithium-08.html#section-8.1.6.2>
 AKP Private 
Key<https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-cose-dilithium-08.html#name-akp-private-key-2>

                                                                Thank you,
                                                                -- Mike

Subject: Request for early allocation of values defined in 
draft-ietf-cose-dilithium

Dear IANA,

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-cose-dilithium/ defines identifiers 
needed for interoperable use of the post-quantum ML-DSA signature algorithm 
defined by NIST.  Implementers are waiting on the code point allocations in 
this draft to be able to produce interoperable implementations using this 
algorithm.  The draft has completed WGLC and publication has been requested.

I am writing as a COSE working group chair requesting that early allocation be 
performed for these values defined by the specification:  All values defined in 
the IANA Considerations section at 
https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-cose-dilithium-06.html#name-iana-considerations
 EXCEPT FOR the private key and seed values in Sections 8.1.4, 8.1.6, 8.1.9.1, 
and 8.1.9.3.  (The private key and seed representations are still being 
discussed in coordination with the Lamps working group, and may change.)

This action has support from both COSE chairs (Ivo and Mike) and the COSE area 
director (Paul).

                                                                Thank you,
                                                                -- Mike
