[Cfrg] RFC Draft for KangarooTwelve XOF draft-viguier-kangarootwelve-00

[Benoît Viguier <b.viguier at science.ru.nl>]

Hello everyone,

I wrote this RFC draft for KangarooTwelve (https://eprint.iacr.org/2016/770).
It provides an efficient and secure hashing primitive, which is able to exploit
the parallelism of the implementation in a scalable way. It uses tree hashing
over a round-reduced version of SHAKE128 as underlying primitive.

The reference code is also at available at:
https://github.com/KeccakTeam/KeccakCodePackage
(Standalone/KangarooTwelve-reference/K12.py)

Draft is available here:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-viguier-kangarootwelve-00

I would like to submit this RFC under the Internet Research Task Force stream,
and as far as I understood I need a Research Group (RFC 5743).
Anyone would be interested to be the Editor?

Of course, any other feedback is welcome.
