[zeromq-dev] Proposal for secure pub-sub

[Pieter Hintjens]

Hi all,

I've posted a draft proposal for secure pubsub, here:
http://www.zeromq.org/topics:pubsub-security

This is not meant to be a final proposal but a basis for discussion.
There are some basic changes over Salt's approach, e.g. the assumption
that public keys are distributed beforehand.

Comments and suggestions welcome. The goal is to be able to publish a
solid spec for secure pubsub over 0MQ, and gather implementations in
various languages.

Thanks for Thomas Hatch for designing the basic flow in Salt and
explaining to me how it works.
