COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

-- Section 2 --

   we propose the use of the SHA-2 [RFC6234] based hashes

Two nits here: first, the second "the" seems odd.  Second, "SHA-2-based hashes"
needs to be hyphenated, which makes the double hyphen odd and moves the
citation.  I suggest, "we propose the use of hashes based on SHA-2 [RFC6234]".

-- Section 4 (and also 5.2) --

   Each key exchange method is implicitly registered by this document.

The registration is not implicit; it's explicit in Section 7.  I suggest
removing "implicitly".

-- Section 8.3 --
Nits: "Some mechanisms implementations" should be "Some mechanism
implementations", "(like commonly used krb5 libraries)" should be "(such as
commonly used krb5 libraries)", and "may results" should be "may result".
