Hi Shuzhou,
Thanks for your interest in the draft, following are my comments regarding your 
questions:


After reading your draft, I liked the idea behind this draft but at the same 
time have some questions.


1.      Does Figure 2 defines a new Auth Method in the "IKEv2 Authentication 
Method"? Because it looks like using the RFC 9593 multi-octet mechanism, but 
not exactly the same.
[HJ] yes, figure 2 defines a new format for SUPPORTED_AUTH_METHODS, which is 
indicated by a new IANA to-be-assigned "Auth Method" value, same value is used 
in "Auth Method" of the AUTH payload

2.      From Section 4.2, I don't get the information about what messages are 
being signed. Maybe some pseudo-code will help.
[HJ] this draft doesn't change message to be signed in IKEv2; so it is the 
InitiatorSignedOctets/ResponderSignedOctets defined in section 2.15 of RFC7296, 
then use InitiatorSignedOctets/ ResponderSignedOctets as the "Message" input in 
"Sign (sk, Message) -> (signature)" process specified in section 4.2 of 
draft-ietf-lamps-pq-composite-sigs-02;
I will add some more text to clarify this in next revision

3.      Section 4.4 said that the composite certificate maybe used. I was 
wondering that it is actually necessary to use a composite certificate with a 
traditional/composite certificate together.
[HJ] I should have made it clear, if a composite cert is used, you indeed don't 
need to use another certificate, a single composite cert is enough. Will 
clarify this in next reversion
