On that note, I wonder if we should turn on post-quantum key exchange in the not too distant future, as the default most-preferred kex. IIUC the one we use is secure if our version of NTRU is secure *or* Curve25519 is secure, and since crypto code is constant-time there is little room for memory unsafety vulnerabilities. So it is low-risk, high-reward, unless I am missing something. > -d Sincerely, Demi
