Are there plans to go post-quantum, e.g. with Kyber Crystals and friends?

Or is that blocked on fully standardized algorithm choices?




The standard library is very unlikely to include, or at least expose, non-final standards. I personally plan to toy with implementing Kyber soon, and plan to produce an experimental age [0] plugin. If a TLS experiment were to gain traction, I don't exclude we might support it in the standard library, since it would be negotiated and we'd be free to drop it later on.
