So now that OCB is finally free, do we want to implement it? :)
I'm honestly not sure if the improvements of AES-GCM are worth it. I haven't heard of vulnerabilities in IKE/ESP wrt. IVs or counters.

While I have been telling people this for quite some time, I don't think I ever made a proper announcement to the CFRG or on the OCB webpage. Consider that done. I hope people will use the scheme to do positive things. phil
