In case the AES search engine works, this will always link to the lates version. Currently the search engine does not work or the latest version (2022) is not available from AES.

I would be careful with linking to a search, this can break quickly. Therefore I would eather link the latest version or all versions. we have to adapt the reference and changes to sofar anyways. I would also link the current version (year).

Normally yes, but with AES its most certain that anything we do will break at some point. This links to the currently available most up to date version from the AES standards store, at least for now.

Fun fact: I did not find the current version on the AES homepage 🤷
