That shouldn’t be too difficult (finding reviewers, I mean). Is the ISE asking for volunteers to review? What kind of volunteers? IMO what a reviewer needs to be able to say is: - The document is clear (you can implement based on this) - The algorithm might be useful in the IETF - The security claims are sufficient to what IETF protocols need - The security claims are backed up by either peer-reviewed academic papers or equivalent
So there’s a lot of people who can do all that. You don’t even need real cryptographers, although having at least one would be good. What is holding things up?
