> DIAC is an ECRYPT-sponsored workshop that will take place 5--6 July in
> Stockholm, in particular evaluating the idea of a new competition for
> authenticated ciphers. The call for papers asks for submissions on new
> components, combinations, attacks, and implementations, but also asks
> for submissions discussing requirements---what users actually want.
> Submissions of panel proposals, white papers, lists of desiderata, etc.
> are encouraged, and there are no particular length requirements.
>
> I should emphasize that an authenticated-cipher competition would be
> much more than an "AE mode" competition. There are certainly people
> working on new ways to use AES, but there are many more people working
> on new authenticators, new block ciphers, new stream ciphers, new
> ciphers with built-in authentication mechanisms, etc.
