NIST request for pre-draft comments on SP 800-38D

[Dworkin, Morris J. (Fed)]

FYI, on Monday NIST posted a request for public comments on the pending revision of SP 800-38D, especially on the development of a wide variant of Galois/Counter Mode, to support the eventual standardization of a 256-bit block cipher. Public comments were requested by July 31.
