Dear colleagues,

I'd like to say a few words on Stanislav's proposal.
This protocol has been thoroughly studied by russian experts during the standardisation process within TC 26.
The security proof was presented at CTCrypt'15 (www.ctcrypt.ru) symposium after blind reviewing.
My opinion is that the proposed scheme has some advantages over existing scemes especially whn we consider practical applications.

As a TC26 expert, I would be happy to actively contribute to processing this proposal within IETF/IRTF.

Regards,
Grigory Marshalko,
security expert,
