If I read this correctly, then either the candidate draft that Paul
Hoffman has offered to the WG, possibly with some additions or
changes, or something with the same topic is a necessary condition for
adopting draft-crocker-dnssec-algo-signal; and if such a document is
adopted and published, then draft-crocker-dnssec-algo-signal would
also be a good idea.  Am I reading correctly?

Best regards,

A
