It is also related to bullet > 3) of section 2. I have already commented this in my response to Paul. So, the document focuses on PQ security, but also has another application in mind - the ability to combine several different key exchange methods so, that the resulting shared secret depends on all of them. This can be useful without any PQ algorithms - e.g. in a situation when each of the peers trust only its favorite key exchange algorithms, so that there is no any single one that is trusted by the both. In this case the draft allows to use two, so that each peer will be sure that its favorite algorithm is used. In this context AH still may be used (well, it is not deprecated yet?). > ### Missing reference RFC 8247 > > As indicated by idnits tool, RFC 8247 is used as a reference but is not > defined > ;-) Ah, we managed to confuse idnits (which in fact is not too difficult) :-) This document does not reference RFC 8247, but it contains the text to be placed at the IANA registry page as a Note, and this text contains a "[RFC8247]", but this reference is in the context of IANA page :-) > ### Section 2 > > The bullet 2) is a nice explanation about *why* there must be multiple key > exchanges with different methods.

I don't mind, but as far as I know, IESG wants abstract to be short :-) If you (and other ADs) think it's a good idea, then we'll add this text. > Should "FIPS" be prefixed by "USA" as in "USA FIPS" ? I don't know, rely on my co-authors (actually it seems that this is a well-known organization outside USA, but formally you are right). > ## NITS > > ### Section 1.2 > > `payloads longer than 64k` suggest to specify the units of measure. Changed to 64 Kbytes. Thank you!
