Re: [Crypto-panel] Stage 5 of PAKE selection process

Dear Bjoern, Scott, Russ, Yaron, Tibor (and myself :) ),

This is just a kind reminder that according to the plan of the PAKE
process, the overall reviews for the nominated PAKEs should be provided
until October, 30th (so that the chairs are able to make their
recommendations until the Singapore meeting).

All materials on the nominated PAKEs have been gathered (many thanks to
Yaron again) here: https://github.com/cfrg/pake-selection

Many thanks again!

Best regards,
Stanislav Smyshlyaev,
CFRG Secretary
