I’ll summarize, most likely incorrectly, but it should suffice.
1) NIST puts out a call for an algorithm
2) NIST evaluates submissions on varying axes: strength, speed, size,
implementability, etc.
3) NIST publishes the results of its evaluations and requests updates (this may
occur more than once)
4) NIST selects a winner.
FWIW, I just did #1 by asking for I-Ds.
Of course we can do something different, but this approach appeals to me as:
- several implementations exist.
- analyzing them would be insightful.
- should be faster than starting from scratch.
