I have added one more source of randomness to be drawn after this period is over to increase entropy. This implies some additional days of delay in the schedule, but we are still ok per RFC8713. Timelines have been updated accordingly. As the author of RFC 3797, I see no problem with adding or deleting randomness sources or even completely replacing the list of randomness sources as long as this is done before the first source in the old list and the new list includes adequate entropy.
