25 * 23 *
26 * Egos in GNUnet are ECDSA keys. You assume an ego by using (signing 24 * @file
27 * with) a particular private key. As GNUnet users are expected to 25 * Identity provider service; implements identity provider for GNUnet
28 * have many egos, we need an identity service to allow users to
29 * manage their egos. The identity service manages the egos (private
30 * keys) of the local user; it does NOT manage egos of other users
31 * (public keys). For giving names to other users and manage their
32 * public keys securely, we use GNS.
