One hopes they will recommend the same elliptic curve standards that the IRTF's CFRG is standardizing for use in e.g. TLS. Given that, so far, the CFRG has standardized curves developed by djb and Mike Hamburg, at least to me they feel free of NSA influence. We'll see what NIST actually ends up doing. Standardizing the CFRG curves seems like a great way they could help promote interoperability and rebuild their reputation. -- Tony Arcieri
