The current draft assumes that key lengths for MAC are the same as the
MAC output length, and states this as a constraint. The counter-example
is AES-CMAC-256, which has a 256 bit key for AES, and a 128 bit output.
The question for the WG is whether or not this is relevant. The feel

Hi,
Please respond FOR or AGAINST making the input and output lengths
independent. This consensus call will last until August 19.

think this is a bit problematic since at one point we had consensus to
address the issues on client state avoidance raised by folks at
Stanford. The goal was that the peer could store its nonce on a
per-server basis rather th
