That'd be pretty cool. Personally, I've been thinking about doing it in javascript, as a Firefox extension, which would enable things like tahoe: URLs embedded in HTML hrefs. We've got a lot of things to fix before either one is feasible.. switching away from Foolscap for the storage-server protocol, switching from shared secrets to ECDSA signed messages for storage-server operations, getting our favorite crypto primitives and FEC libraries available from the target language, defining the top-level API that this embedded Tahoe component offers to something higher-up in the browser, etc. cheers, -Brian _______________________________________________ tahoe-dev mailing list [email protected] http://allmydata.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tahoe-dev
