Subject: Twofish (our AES Submission) is Available

Twofish, the block cipher we have submitted to NIST's AES competition,
is on the web.  Please see

	http://www.counterpane.com/twofish.html

for details, including description, analysis, source code, and test 
vectors.

Other AES submissions will presumably be made public as the weeks 
progress, although NIST will not publish the submissions until the 
August meeting.  See the NIST website at

	http://csrc.nist.gov/encryption/aes/aes_home.htm

for more details.
