Thanks for the link to SPKI. Until I get a chance to read that, here
are two questions about lsh_keygen:
Is it useful without lsh_writekey? That is, would it be reasonable to
do something like "lsh_keygen > keypair" and store the SPKI s-expressions
in a raw form?
Would doing the above be a security problem?
Unless the answers to the these are "YES" and "NO", I think splitting the
functionality into two programs might be a mistake. I understand you
are going for the unix philosophy, but if there is a conflict between that
and good security, I think security must win.
Thanks,
Tom Proett
