[lamps] PQC X.509 115 Hackathon

[Mike Ounsworth <[e-mail]>]

Hi LAMPS and people interested in PQC!

As suggested at 114, my colleague John Gray and I would like to do a 115 Hackathon on PQ keys and signatures in X.509 / PKIX.

We are suggesting to play with Dilithium, Falcon, Sphincs+, and Composite signing algorithms in Certs, CRLs, CSRs, PKCS#12s, CMS SignedData, maybe OCSP Responses, maybe Timestamping, maybe CMP. We can bring: the Entrust Toolkit (which we can hack at), Bounce Castle, OpenQuantumSafe-openssl, OpenCA (easier if Max Pala is there, but we can probably figure out how to build it).

The point of the hackathon, I think, is going to be OIDs, and public key / private key formats (ex.: the differences between Dilithium and Falcon encodings in draft-uni-qsckeys, and draft-massimo-lamps-pq-sig-certificates).



Question 1: are others interested in joining us at the hackathon? (no point is signing up for a hackathon spot if we're the only ones there)

Question 2: whether or not you're joining, what PQ X.509 / PKIX things would you like to see working with Dilithium, Falcon, Sphincs+, Composite?
