I find myself of two minds here.

 From one perspective, is there a desire that the two be identical?  
If so, is there any chance that the authors of those profiles could  
talk with the IETF about their lines of reasoning? My sense is that  
the profiles are just that - that whatever the IETF may have thought  
on a topic, that NIST and DoD have each chosen to think differently,  
and that a vendor looking at the issues needs to review each of the  
relevant sets of requirements.

 From the other perspective, whether or not the two are identical,  
there are obviously different lines of reasoning here, and the IETF  
(gasp) might be incorrect on one point or another. Which brings me  
back to - is there any chance that not only the differences could be  
summarized, but the reasoning behind the differences?
