If you wanted to write an RFC for Serpent, go for it. Look at the one
for Camillia as a guide and plagiarize all that you need.
Well a) I'm not sure whether David would be very happy if I plagiarize
his work ;) b) I don't consider myself to be enough of a crypto-guru
and/or expert in the RFC/ID writing mechanisms to do that c) without
support form the community/WG,... this has rather limited changes (IMO).
I don't know that you need my permission, but in any event by all means please
do plagiarize it. Frankly, you could make a Serpent draft in short order by
simply replacing the string "Camellia" with "Serpent" and changing the
references. Most of the text there applies just as well to Serpent as it does
to Camellia.
I can send you the XML source to the draft if you like - xml2rfc handles all
the RFC formatting and boilerplate for you.
