Absolutely a learning experience, this is why I posted it to HN. Really appreciate your feedback and everyone else's - it has been tremendous. Also thanks for the note on Nacl and libsodium, I will look into those.
This is great. Thanks for sharing! I could definitely see building out something similar on top of private-message once I firm up the scripts with a more secure block mode.
I love this comment. Thank you for putting the time in to proposing a more thorough solution. I will take this (and other) comments into consideration, and make some much needed improvements :)
Sorry I made you barf ryan-c. If you have any interest in making this better I'd be willing to convert your constructive criticism into code. Issues are open on GH :)
I ran into this issue, I couldn't encrypt really large strings so I chunked the plain text. Not sure why that is the case. I would consider doing something like what you suggest, though I'm not sure exactly how I'd implement it. If you're interested in showing me how, I'd love to collaborate on some code with you (start an issue! https://github.com/sadasystems/private-message/issues)

This sounds a lot like SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) Alpha = IdP, Beta = Service Provider, Gamme = a user or some server requesting access to Beta's data or services. Alpha would contain a set of ACL's (Access Control Lists) that prescribe what groups / users have access to what content or services on B.
It also means that some people (like Gates), that greatly succeed in a capitalist society, who has never been personally affected by Malaria (that I know of), can allocate money, awareness, and research towards a solution.
marketer, great app I use it daily.. my only wish is that it included more sharing options instead of just email.. twitter would be nice, or at bare minimum the ability to copy the url of the post so I could send it around. Keep up the great work!
It's a long read ~520 pages, but worth it. I just finished it myself, I really like the final chapter where he ties the philosophy to real world political and social challenges that I think we are all trying to solve in one way or another with technology.
I've been using something very similar for my blog for the past month or so, it's called Toto. Flat file, git, Ruby, Markdown, Disqus, etc. Check it out: http://cloudhead.io/toto
and a good post on how to get up and running http://fadeyev.net/2010/05/10/getting-started-with-toto/ . It was really fast and simple to go from 0 to blogging. The default template is nice too (jlank.com)
