Hello
I wonder if I could be granted access to post to the dev list. My project is
the Meek hardware wallet, and we are working on a solution to avoid MITM
attacks when communicating a pay-to information over a non-secure transport
mechanism.

Whats a sensible limit on practical/convenient QR code size?
Technically 3 KB. In my experience codes above 1.5 KB become impossible
to scan (ZXing scanner, 3 years ago). You will want to stay below 500
bytes for convenient scanning. That said, I'm

Afaik, BIP73 needs an external server (the web server).
Yes. Internet connectivity is not a rarity these days. Near-field
web servers also work fine.
Unfortunately it still is. At least here in Germany.

I couldn't do a better job at describing my motivation behind trying to

Maybe its time to explore raw ECDSA signed message based certs.
btw I dont think its quite 4kB. eg bitpay's looks to be about 1.5kB in der
format. And they contain a 2048-bit RSA server key, and 2048-bit RSA
signatures (256byte each right there = 512bytes). And even 2048 is weaker
than 256-bit

If you want to create and run a new CA, by all means. But I bet you don't.
So we're stuck with the current system for now.

Sounds very relevant to what we were just discussing on the other thread,
about securing Bluetooth connections and BIP70.

Oh, one other reason I found - apparently RIM, at least in the past, has
been telling CA's that they need to pay mad bux for the Certicom ECC
patents. So that's another reason why most certs are still using RSA.

According to Bernstein it's patent FUD (expired, ancient and solid prior
art).

Maybe so, but given the relatively minor advantages of ECC certs I can see
why a CA might not want to take any risks. They are sitting ducks for
patent trolls.
I think ECC will still happen, though we end up back into NSA fear
territory thanks to the stupid way secp256r1 was defined. *Hopefully*

SPDY requires SSL and is even more complex than HTTP.
Really, the current protocol we've got (length prefixed protobufs) is just
fine except for the lack of encryption/authentication. For that you need to
do ECDH to establish a shared AES session key, and MAC each packet. Like I
said, it's not

Yes.

How can I gain status of maintainer, admin or / and reviewer in

I'd like to set the description, project logo and whatever is missing on
