But if we generate a signature scheme that works well for certificate authorities as well as common protocols such as TLS, SSH, IKE, and S/Mime, we should do that. If that doesn’t fit some use cases, there can be another signature scheme for them. This is kind of like #3, but I don’t think it’s required that the two schemes be linked. Yoav
