It's a +1 from me too.

And apologies - I managed to swap the labels for the .asc & .sha516 files below

Great to meet you too Giorgio.

Regards,

John

> DESCRIPTION SUMMARY:
> The Apache Milagro (Incubating) Decentralized Trust Authority (D-TA) 
> is a collaborative key management server. It has two primary functions.
>
> -Issue shares of identity-based Type-3 pairing secrets for 
> initializing zero-knowledge proof multi-factor authentication 
> (ZKP-MFA) networks of clients and authentication servers.
> -Safeguards shares of generic secrets, acting independently but in 
> conjunction with other D-TA nodes, for the benefit of other D-TA nodes.
>
> In the use case where it issues shares, the D-TA holds nothing except 
> for its Master Secret and acts as a distributed private key generation server.
> In the use case where it is safeguarding shares of secrets, it is up 
> to the application developer to implement back-end application logic 
> to hold those shares securely. Examples include using Hardware 
> Security Modules (HSMs) via an on-board PKCS#11 implementation to 
> create a realm of key encryption keys, or multi-party computation through BLS 
> signature aggregation.
>
> RELEASE RATIONALE SUMMARY:
> By default, the D-TA allows requests from a Principal's D-TA for an
> secp256k1 public key from a Fiduciary D-TA and then to subsequently 
> allow the Principal to request its corresponding private key. Whilst 
> this may have utility on its own, the Milagro community's intention is 
> to extend the capability of the server over time to meet many key 
> generation, key storage and distribution use cases. This will be 
> achieved using the D-TA's plugin architecture, and to this end, the 
> initial release includes two plugins to demonstrate the D-TA's extensibility.
>
> Subsequent releases will enable the D-TA to issue Type-3 
> pairing/identity based secrets for "M-Pin" clients and servers 
> ("M-Pin" is a zero-knowledge authentication protocol in the 
> milagro-crypto-c library that also facilitates multi-factor 
> authentication). In parallel with this will be a rewritten release of 
> the Milagro MFA Authentication server (the original authentication 
> server was conflated with the D-TA function limiting its security efficacy).
> The Milagro community is publishing this release now to elicit 
> feedback from a wider community that may have interest in an open 
> source, decentralized key generation, storage and distribution 
> solution. Our intention is to then to release a series of enhanced 
> versions culminating with a production-ready GA version.
