Hi all,
I have read the mailing list discussion around key types in the PQC KEM draft
(draft-ietf-jose-pqc-kem). This might seem like an unexciting detail. After
all, who really cares about the name of the structure in which the key is
embedded? Yet, quite to my surprise, it has turned out that there are multiple
views on the subject.

The good news, however, is that whichever option we select, the implementation
effort is minimal.
I would request the chairs to make a consensus call so that we can close this
issue and move on with the draft.
Ciao
Hannes
