We published this update to the working group item; I believe we incorporated the various suggestions people have made.

Are people happy with the state of the draft?  Are there other revisions people would like to see?  If there are further revisions, I would like to get them in before the WG meeting in Prague.

Thanks!

> Abstract:
>    The possibility of quantum computers pose a serious challenge to
>    cryptography algorithms widely today.  IKEv2 is one example of a
>    cryptosystem that could be broken; someone storing VPN communications
>    today could decrypt them at a later time when a quantum computer is
