Internet-Draft draft-condrey-rats-pop-aggregation-00.txt is now available.

   Title:   Proof of Process: VDF Proof Aggregation Extension
   Author:  David Condrey
   Name:    draft-condrey-rats-pop-aggregation-00.txt
   Pages:   9
   Dates:   2026-02-07

Abstract:

   This document defines optional mechanisms for aggregating Verifiable
   Delay Function (VDF) proofs in Proof of Process Evidence packets.
   Aggregation enables O(1) or O(log n) verification of entire
   checkpoint chains that would otherwise require O(n) sequential VDF
   recomputation.  This extension supports Merkle tree aggregation and
   SNARK-based proof compression for high-volume verification scenarios.
