In the last IETF meeting, Tim Polk speaking as security AD said that the matter of algorithm agility could be addressed by producing a draft describing a second algorithm and a draft describing an algorithm transition process, subject to concurrence by his co-AD.

I've not heard from Tim about his co-AD's acceptance of this strategy, but I suggest that we proceed with this.

I would like to hear from volunteers who would be willing to take the pen to write either of these drafts.

I believe that the second algorithm draft should be straightforward (Tim suggested ECDSA).

I don't believe that the transition process is quite so straightforward and I invite everyone to begin to discuss this on list.
