All:

I can’t seem to find the original comment thread for this draft:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-irtf-cfrg-xchacha/

For background I work closely with the SACM wg of IETF.

I have nothing to add to this paper other than “strong recommend”. Length
should be extended to 192 and process should move forward beyond draft
stage.


Thank you,
