Hello folks, https://github.com/FiloSottile/powersoftau is a fully independent implementation of Powers of Tau. It is written in Go, shares no code with the main Rust implementation, and uses the RELIC library for BLS12-381.
I used it for my contribution, but for it to be truly valuable to the security of the MPC ceremony more people need to run it, including in more secure settings than my laptop. The README includes build instructions. If there are any problems feel free to open an issue on GitHub or email me. To enable people to run both implementations there's a -next option to generate the next challenge file while computing the response. This is much faster than running verify_transform as it doesn't do verification and it doesn't have to decompress points. You should assume that secret material will be left in memory, and protect against side channels, just like with the Rust implementation. _o/
