I am still a bit confused about Sec. 3 (use in IKEv2):

- Where does it say (in this draft or in Sec. 2.7 of the CFRG draft) that the IV is included explicitly, and where exactly it should go?

- In the bullet that describes the IV, I would add text that the IKE Message ID is not an option, and why.

- How do we make sure that the key/IV combination is unique between Initiator and Responder?

Thanks,
        Yaron

Greetings again. This begins the two-week WG Last Call on 
draft-ietf-ipsecme-chacha20-poly1305, which ends Monday May 11. We would love 
to hear from people in either of two groups:

- Those who have already reviewed an earlier version of this draft. Please 
re-read the draft now, and let us know if it is perfect, or if there anything 
else you want added or changed. This includes Yaron, PaulW, Tero, ScottF, and 
Valery.

- Those who have *not* yet reviewed this draft, but want to help the IETF create good standards in 
this area. If you are an IPsec implementer, or know one at your organization, reviewing this draft 
and sending any comments to the list (even just "seems fine" or "I liked it except 
this one thing") is useful to all of us.

It seems very likely that this new algorithm combination will appear in IKEv2 
and ESP soon, and having folks give a bit more review will help prevent 
whoopsies in the future.
