There are a few questions on the proposed charter:

In the text

"Negotiation of cryptographic parameters during the protocol is an
application-specific property and thus out of scope for the Working Group."

What are the cryptographic parameters and why would they not need to be
negotiated for interoperability?

Also, is the following text a result of the algorithms being worked on in
CFRG vs. this working group?

"Specification of the underlying cryptographic algorithms or protocols is
also out of scope."

If so we might mention that this work depends on the work in the CFRG.

Thanks,

Joe
