Hi,

We have updated the AES-GCM-SIV spec and uploaded draft version 7. There is no difference whatsoever with respect to the algorithm; the only changes in the document are in the Security Considerations section. We found that some of the text there was easily misunderstood and so we have made it clearer.

This is also a good opportunity to point to a website that we have setup for AES-GCM-SIV with links, FAQs and more. The URL is: https://cyber.biu.ac.il/aes-gcm-siv/

All the best,

Adam, Shay and Yehuda
