Dear all, To avoid clogging up the IETF with endless revisions, I've decided to do the wordsmithing on github. Emails to me are still excellent ways of communicating issues, but for those inclined to do typo work and other valuable (and underappreciated) editing efforts, feel free to examine an up-to-date copy at github.com/wbl/safecurvesdraft. Quite a few people have argued that I need to explain the double-and-add algorithm, even though it is standard. Then again I have no idea what sort of implementation details are generally considered necessary in a draft, especially when they are completely unnecessary to specify the "what" of the behavior. This seems to me to be the biggest issue of contention with regards to the draft: some people want something ala RFC 6090, while I want to avoid massive bloat with implementation details that anyone implementing this draft probably knows anyway. This isn't a strongly principled stand on my part, but I would like to see this move through swiftly. Sincerely, Watson Ladd
