The working group last call for pure ML-KEM has concluded, thanks to those that participated in the discussion. In summary, we do not have consensus to publish the document as is. The largest number of participants wanted to publish the document as is, however there was also a significant number that wanted changes to the document before publication and a small, but vocal, number of participants that do not want the document to be published at all. There were several issues raised, but the main area of contention was around having a statement on the security and applicability of this mechanism versus the hybrid key mechanisms. Given this, the chairs will move the document back to the "WG Document" state and ask the author to work on resolving the issues brought up on the list including text to address concerns that there are reasons to prefer hybrid over the pure approach. The chairs will then redo a working group last call to see if there is rough consensus for publishing this document.
I'm still at a loss as to how the above doesn't map to the current WGLC being just a normal WGLC. And I don't see how that text maps to a WGLC limited to any specific aspects of the draft. Maybe there's some miscommunication somewhere but I certainly did not interpret the above as meaning some part(s) of the draft were considered to have passed the first WGLC. Cheers, S.
