"I'd like to request the removal of Kevin Igoe from CFRG co-chair."
"Twice Kevin suggested a technique for deriving the Dragonfly
password-based element which would make the protocol easy to break
[IGOE_1, IGOE_2]. He also endorsed an ineffective attempt to avoid
timing attacks by adding extra iterations to one of the loops [IGOE_3,
IGOE_4]."
Note that Kevin Igoe's mail address is "at nsa.gov" and all the quoted "accidents" happened before Snowden disclosures (which were in the Summer of 2013).
