+1 on the doc Florence. 

If only we had a WG to work on it... 😉

I suggest to go with PQ or quantum-safe instead of PQT. "Traditional" implies that there is a PQ non-traditional, but I don't think there is.

Hi PQC mailing list,

Thanks to the SEC ADs for setting up this list.  I hope it’s appropriate to use it for this purpose.

I wanted to flag a new draft, Terminology for Post-Quantum Traditional Hybrids: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-driscoll-pqt-hybrid-terminology/.  The aim of this draft is to standardise a glossary for language related to post-quantum hybrid constructions, i.e. schemes which incorporate both post-quantum and traditional algorithms.  I’m hopeful that this can be the beginning of a conversation between the authors of various hybrid drafts (and others who are interested), to settle discussions of language and agree on a shared vocabulary.

If you’re interested, I’m going to be presenting this at SecDispatch next week, and I’d be keen to discuss further, either at IETF 114 or otherwise.  Reviews and comments are also very welcome.  For more information, the original SecDispatch post is here https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/secdispatch/fX20PMhXRP-YYPulEL06MIFsc6g/.

Thanks and I look forward to further PQC conversations on this list, Flo UK National Cyber Security Centre This information is exempt under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA) and may be exempt under other UK information legislation.
