This donation contains the 'in development' alpha version of the new Decentralized Trust Authority software client which we would like to release broadly in a series of staged releases until a final GA version in Q4. We would like to get the alpha release out asap, followed by a beta, then an RC1 and finally a GA version. The vision is that the D-TA will be the server process that functions as the master key generation server for a) issuing Type-3 pairing/identity based secrets for M-Pin clients and servers (the original D-TA version) and b) safeguard shares of secrets like Bitcoin private keys. The problem with the initial version of the M-Pin client/server code into Milagro was that there was no standardized REST API method to issue identity based secrets for M-Pin clients and servers, and the Trust Authority was conflated with the authentication server. This new donation fixes that design limitation and enables a broader set of functional use cases to be addressed, particular for protecting cryptocurrency private keys. Because this D-TA is developed outside of the ASF version control and mailing list, this donation will need to be formally accepted and follow the IP clearance procedure [2]. I would like to start a formal vote on accepting this code. If the vote is successful I will start with the IP clearance. Please vote: [ ] +1 Accept this donation. [ ] 0 Don't care [ ] -1 Don't accept this donation (please motivate your vote).
