Hello there,
yesterday we held another reading group on #tor-dev to discuss proposal 250 (Random Number Generation During Tor Voting). You can find the logs here: http://meetbot.debian.net/tor-dev/2016/tor-dev.2016-01-26-15.58.log.html
Here are some code and spec changes that we need to do after discussion with Nick:
Code & spec changes: - Remove ed25519 keys from code and spec. - SHA256 -> Keccak - "SUGGESTION: On 3.1.1, wouldn't it just be easier to sort the R_b in ascending order and use them in HASHED_REVEALS?" - "Why does REVEAL put the TS first and COMMIT puts it last? (Still on 4.1.1)"
Spec changes: - Specify TIMESTAMP better in spec - Fix base32 commits in proposal - Specify what happens during SRV generation when there is no previous_SRV - Remove the XXX in 3.1.1 since it's taken care of - Document the phase determination logic better. - Remove MUST paragraph from 3.1.2
