I have an idea for implementing invitational references. Bascially, in the
reference would be a private SSK. When a client receives such an invitation, it
would insert its own ref under the private SSK which the sender of the
invitation can regularly check. This can be extended to allow an invitation to
be used multiple times: the receiver of the invitation would just try to insert
under SSK at blahblah/1/ and if it fails under SSK at blahblah/2/ and so on and
the sender can check under those as well.I am not sure about the security
implications of such a system or how hard it is to implement but I think it can
make adding peers easier. Of course, the person being invited has to be on the
network already...
