Thanks for posting this Andres! I will need to read this closely.
I only skimmed it for now… but the use of quorums suggests to me that this is a sort of Convergence style approach to keyservers, is that about right? One note, as this part jumped out at me: > The security requirements for end-to-end encryption leave us with an > unfortunate tradeoff known as Zooko's triangle[1] (the CAP theorem[2] of > security?): we do not know how to build a global secure directory of > human-chosen usernames. I think we’ve known how to build such a directory since 2011 at least, see Aaron Swartz’ post: http://www.aaronsw.com/weblog/squarezooko <http://www.aaronsw.com/weblog/squarezooko> Which led to Namecoin, etc. Cheers, Greg Slepak -- Please do not email me anything that you are not comfortable also sharing with the NSA.
