This looks great, thanks for the link! I still haven't read it in depth, but a priori it seems that it's quite close to what we want to achieve (as one component of the distributor, at least).
Hi,
Maybe an important difference here is that GetTor is a way to circumvent censorship (if I understand correctly), while our extension works to provide authentication only. I think it's a good idea to rely on browser stores not to be censored in the same way as your website. But our extension for example, is downloaded from the browser but then is executed from a webpage on our website and relies on description files provided by our website to verify downloads that are done one any of our mirrors. In this scenario, both our website and our mirrors could be easily blocked by someone who wants to block our downloads while not blocking the browser store.
Still, if you think that you can reuse part of our extension we would be very happy to work together with you to make this possible. We almost finished specifying the extension and Giorgio Maone from NoScript has started coding a first prototype.
