this document

Many thanks, Riad!

I'll definitely think about this - maybe it will be reasonable to arrange a
discussion of this (with slides, at CFRG) at IETF 107 and initiate a
document on this.
If you don't mind, I'll get in touch with you off-list in the beginning of
2020 - to discuss, what should be included in such a document. Would you
like to participate in this?..

>> But: would it be possible to clarify, maybe just in the intro, that this
document is primarily geared toward the HSM case?
I think that mentioning HSMs as one of most important cases when the
construction is needed, can be helpful.
Chris, Nick, what do you think?

Best regards,
Stanislav
