This is going to be even more laconic and incomplete than usual, but at least it will be *something*, unlike the last three or so Dev Chats where I didn't send any note to the mailing list at all.
In attendance: Zooko, Andrew, Iraklis, David-Sarah, Anna, Amber, Rohit, Oleksandr, Samuel topic: Message-Locked Encryption, convergent encryption discussion: wide-ranging survey of possible future compression and encryption schemes; segment-level deduplication, segment permutation and dummy-segment-insertion (sort of like Oblivious RAM?), content-determined+variable-length segmentation (like bup and backshift), Amber's idea of a novel way to do that sort of segmentation besides using a rolling hash, pre-image-resistant rolling hashes, Ristenpart et al.'s "Randomized Convergent Encryption", probably more stuff that I misunderstood or forgot. Next week will be a "Nuts And Bolts" meeting. It will be at 16:00 UTC (8:00 Pacific) so that Brian can attend before going to work. The topic will be "Let's close a bunch of tickets for Tahoe-LAFS v1.10 now, while we're on this videoconference together". The week after that will *probably* be another "Tesla Coils And Corpses" meeting in which someone, probably Iraklis, will present their progress on one of these ideas. https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/wiki/WeeklyMeeting --Z _______________________________________________ tahoe-dev mailing list [email protected] https://tahoe-lafs.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tahoe-dev
