The following text in Section 1:

   At the time of writing this specification, high-quality free
   implementations of Curve25519 has been in deployed use for several
   years, while Curve448 implementations are slowly appearing, so it is
   accepted that adoption of Curve448 would be slower.

would not age well once the RFC is published. I suggest this is moved from the
draft to the shepherding write-up.

Also, SHA-256 and SHA-512 need to be normative references.
