    Hello all,

 

    Speaking as an individual, not an author:

 

    This assessment of quantum computing seems optimistic to me. 

 

Some scientists swear that we’ll see “effective” quantum computers within 5-10 years. Others swear that we won’t see them in our lifetime. I do not know enough to be certain of which group is right. I conjecture than none on this list can reasonably do so either.

 

    But ignoring that: by this argument, should CFRG abandon all other

    activity on drafts that are not PQ-secure as well?

 

IMHO, yes. 

 

Regards,

Uri

Is it worth it? My answer is "no".
