Bob,

Thank you for sharing version 2 of the PQC signature proposal: As mentioned in our last call, I noticed a few inconsistencies, which look like left-over from copy-pasting the key generation section from current specification:

Sections 1.1.4 and 1.2.4: replace âCKA_PRIME, CKA_BASE,â by âCKA_PARAMETER_SET, â.
Section 1.3.4: replace âCKA_PRIME, CKA_BASE,â by âCKA_PARAMETER_SET, CKA_HASH_FAMILY,â.
CKA_HASH_FAMILY must as well be defined in table 13 in section 1.3.3 (same as in table 12 in section 1.3.2).

I also noticed some minor editorial things:

Header of Mechanisms vs. Functions tables in 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3 : change âDecaspulateâ to âDecapsulateâ
Section 1.1.3, table 3: change reference [CYRSTALS-DILIITHIUMROUND3] to [CRYSTALS-DILITHIUM_ROUND3]
Section 1.1.3, in sample template: append â_ROUND3â to âCKP_DILITHIUM2â
Section 1.1.4 and 1.1.5: change reference [CRYSTALS_DILITHIUM_ROUND3] to [CRYSTALS-DILITHIUM_ROUND3]
Section 1.1.5, 2^nd paragraph: double âhasâ
Section 1.2.3, in sample template: append â_ROUND3â to âCKP_FALCON512â
Section 1.3.3, table 13: change CK_DILITHIIUM_PARAMETER_SET_TYPE to CK_SPHINCS_PLUS_PARAMETER_SET_TYPE
Section 1.3.3, in sample template: remove âCrystals-â from the label string
Section References: change reference [CRYTALS_DILITHIUM_ROUND3] to [CRYSTALS-DILITHIUM_ROUND3]

Iâm sorry it took me so long to put my comments in writing. Would you nevertheless be able to update the proposal before the next meeting, to vote for such version 3?

Best regards,

Dieter

Submitter's message
I've updated this based on the latest feedback. There is still the issue of how to handle multi-part verify, which I'll propose potential solutions in separate posts.
