- Ideas:
- Automatic offer acceptance/managing credentials
- Machine readable governance
- Ideas:
- Ursa
- To replace libsodium, need to have a replacement for the anoncrypt / authcrypt sealed box for pack / unpack.
- Can be done in Ursa with two steps, but might add as a single function call.
- Revocation 2.0 Support - new approach: Non-Revocation Range Merkle Tree - Ursa RFC here
- Performance looks good at 1M creds/registry - 16M might be possible.
- To replace libsodium, need to have a replacement for the anoncrypt / authcrypt sealed box for pack / unpack.
