I understand that others might want McEliece because they trust it more. In that case, I suggest the mechanism described in #6 to be a "MAY" in the draft.

Hi Panos,

as this draft does not specify any new key exchange methods I would not
include it in this document at all.
Best would probably be in a eventual future draft that also introduces
McEliece
and/or NTS-KEM transform ID for use with IKEv2.

Tobias
