Separate Volume public/private key pair for authorizing gateways #52

Closed jcnelson closed 10 years ago

jcnelson commented 10 years ago

To public/private keys: one Alice uses to authorize gateways, and one the Volume uses to sign metadata. Alice signs the Volume's metadata signing key.

This is incompatible with our desire to allow Alice to avoid needing a user private key. Won't implement.
