Dave, As a clarification, the NomCom is a small crucible of specially-empowered volunteers. The fact that one has to be a volunteer explicitly makes it the case that self-selection is a factor in at least the initial phase. Hence it is very much the case that people who feel

The random selection process coupled with the relatively small number of volunteers is an interesting factor in all of this. I have been selected 3 times (albeit the second time it all fell apart in The Giant Reset of 2006 :-) and volunteered probably 10 or 15 times. It's either hard to get on

FYI. In WiMAX we derive keys directly from EMSK. We don't use the MOARKs ;-) It maybe a good idea or a bad idea -- we haven't had a chance to look at it because we did our stuff before the MOARK was conceived. We did align at one point with Joe's draft. I am not sure whether defining a MOARK

Hi Avi, I agree that simply removing the MOARK (aka the DSRK) will not prevent EMSK misuse but it will remove a large temptation to misuse. The sole purpose I can see in the DSRK is to get around the fact that we do not export the EMSK. If there are valid reasons to not export the EMSK then

Hi Dan, I am not a MOARK expert nor a HOAKEY expert. But they way I see it is that HOAKEY may need to export a root key around yet other applications may not. Those it is a good idea the the real mother of root keys -- EMSK -- remain in the EAP layer so it can be used to derive other keys
