[openpgp] Re: IETF 122 reportback (please confirm minutes )

Hi dkg & all,

I made some edits / corrections to the minutes at
https://notes.ietf.org/notes-ietf-122-openpgp synchronously /
after you copy pasted them but before I saw this email.

Most were just clarifications of what was said in the meeting, but I
also have to note a correction to something I said in the meeting that
was wrong, namely that there's an HKDF step in the symmetric encryption
of session keys. I confused myself as there's an HKDF in various other
places in RFC9580, but there isn't one here.

I also don't think it's necessary as the AEAD mode is bound to the key
material in an encrypted private key, and I also don't think there's a
significant risk of reaching the maximum number of encryptions per key
(2^32 for GCM is the lowest, but even that is a lot).

But, let me know if anyone disagrees or thinks there should be an HKDF
step there. I'll also think a bit more about whether the above could
be a concern in some cases.

In any case, apologies for the confusion!

Best,
Daniel
