At p0s' request here's some information about how Infocalypse currently uses WoT.
Infocalypse sets a "vcs" context on identities when they create a repository, and inserts a list of repositories under the identity's subspace at /vcs/. To do this it uses the insert URI from GetOwnIdentities. It also checks for a Freemail context before trying to send something from the identity. To find local identities it performs its own parsing on the GetOwnIdentities response to find them by enough of the nickname and identity ID to be unambiguous. To find remote identities it first attempts to use LessCrappyWebOfTrust's support for GetIdentitiesByPartialNickname. [0] If that fails, it looks for an exact identity ID with GetIdentity. It also checks that Freemail recipients have a Freemail context. To find a repository when given something like "hg pull freenet:operhiem1/pyProbe", it will find operhiem1 as a remote identity, fetch its /vcs/, match the name, and return the resulting URI. It would be useful to publish a property containing the edition of the repository list. A property would allow that information to propagate through WoT, instead of boostrapping by fetching edition 0 and storing the latest known edition. Using a property is currently not practical because setting any property triggers a trust list insert. There is a bug for this.
