SUMMARY: Design questions raised were not nailed down and left up to authors and LEWG to decide. Feedback was given on how to provide an interface for splitting X (the counter). Assuming the guidance will be implemented, the next revision of the paper should target LEWG.

POLL:

• Do you prefer a single engine? 3
• Do you prefer a split between engine and PRF? 2

# of Authors: 2
# of Participants: 8
Author Position: prefer a single engine
Outcome: no guidance

POLL: Any objection to forwarding a new revision of the paper to LEWG, assuming the guidance we gave is implemented.

Outcome: unanimous consent
