Hi Ilari,

Thanks for pointing this out. I will admit I am pretty unaware of the
additional constraints that DTLS has, but I will try to look at this issue
in more detail. In the meantime, I would also appreciate it if people who
are also concerned about AuthKEM+DTLS share their interest and concerns, as
that will help with their visibility and maybe give me a list of people to
ask questions to :)

You're welcome to contribute or +1 in the mailing list or, if you're
concerned about noise, thumbs-up on this issue
https://github.com/kemtls/draft-celi-wiggers-tls-authkem/issues/23

Cheers,
