OTR #51

Open nb333 opened 10 years ago

nb333 commented 10 years ago

Based on the feedback we've received from multiple people regarding our current structure, we are trying to implement OTR, instead of the custom protocol we had in mind.

Please let me know if you're interested in helping. :)

Implementing it yourself is definitely not the way to go. Why not use the already battle-tested otr4 library. It's been compiled to javascript with emscriptlen so it's pretty much ready to go! There's also a javascript binding to the native library if you're using node.js server-side

How is OTR useful in a communications library? Isn't it just for IM?

@dsoprea It can't be repurposed for HTTP?

dsoprea commented 10 years ago

I asked two questions. I'm not asserting anything.

@ilsken My question was directed to you, since you seemed to be comfortable with the idea: Is it practical to map encryption meant for an established IM system to HTTP pipelines?

Hi, I've googled about OTR messaging, I've found an implementation of it on Js here is it https://github.com/arlolra/otr perhaps it can help.

Best regards.
