Hi Kenny:

I had some trouble finding recent discussions on this document. The document seems to have dependencies on other drafts (e.g., Ristretto) for which it is very hard to find any discussion either (and are not that easy to read ). If you could point to this, that would be great.

Could you explain how this fits within CFRG's charter? What is the general philosophy nowadays ("more is better" vs. "less is more", protocols with wide applicability vs. specialized, etc, etc.)?

Best regards, Rene

The Crypto Forum Research Group (CFRG) is a general forum for discussing and reviewing uses of cryptographic mechanisms, both for network security in general and for the IETF in particular.

The CFRG serves as a bridge between theory and practice, bringing new cryptographic techniques to the Internet community and promoting an understanding of the use and applicability of these mechanisms via Informational RFCs (in the tradition of, e.g., RFC 1321 (MD5) and RFC 2104 (HMAC). Our goal is to provide a forum for discussing and analyzing general cryptographic aspects of security protocols, and to offer guidance on the use of emerging mechanisms and new uses of existing mechanisms. IETF working groups developing protocols that include cryptographic elements are welcome to bring questions concerning the protocols to the CFRG for advice.

Meetings and Membership

The CFRG meetings, membership, and mailing list are open to all who wish to participate.

Dear CFRG,

This email starts a 2-week adoption call for:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-sullivan-cfrg-voprf/
Oblivious Pseudorandom Functions (OPRFs) using Prime-Order Groups

Please give your views on whether this document should be adopted as a CFRG draft, and if so, whether you'd be willing to help work on it/review it.

(We have two other adoption calls running concurrently; they will end this Friday, May 10th.)

Thanks,

Kenny (for the chairs)
