One of critical things that we (the IETF and IoT community) need to do is show that we have all the tooling required to do Hash-Based Signature Algorithm updates for SUIT (RFC8778). A fire-drill in essence. We don't need to it well, but we need to be able to do that. -- Michael Richardson <mcr+IETF@sandelman.ca> . o O ( IPv6 IøT consulting ) Sandelman Software Works Inc, Ottawa and Worldwide
