[TLS] Salsa20 stream cipher in TLS

[Simon Josefsson <[e-mail]>]

All,

FYI, we have published -00 of a draft that describes how the Salsa20
stream cipher can be added to TLS and DTLS, see:

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-josefsson-salsa20-tls

While we are not asking for WG adoption of this draft now, we are at a
point where we would like to invite external review and solicit
feedback.  Some elements of the draft is still in flux.  For example,
initial performance benchmarks suggests HMAC-SHA256 was a poor choice
for the MAC so we are looking into UMAC and HMAC-SHA1 as alternatives.
Still, all comments are appreciated.
