About the references to ISO documens, I think it is a general issue for IETF drafts.

How does the other IETF drafts make the references to ISO documents? ISO documents are often referenced by IETF drafts.

Thanks,

Kind Regards

Hi Paul:

I tried and look up the documents GMT.0009-2012 and GBT.32918.5-2016 on 
the (non-secured) websites you referenced, but only found Chinese 
versions (and Chinese website navigation panels [pardon my poor language 
skills here]). Since the ISO documents are not available to the general 
public without payment, it would be helpful to have a freely available 
document (in English) from an authoritative source. Having such a 
reference available would be helpful to the IETF community (and 
researchers). Please note that BSI provides its specifications in German 
and English, so as to foster use/study by the community. If the Chinese 
national algorithms would be available in similar form, this would serve 
a similar purpose.

FYI - I am interested in full details and some time last year I tried to 
download specs, but only Parts 2, 4, and 5 were available [1], [2], [3], 
not Parts 1 and 3.

Best regards, Rene
