Subject: [9fans] replace p9sk1 with something better(9front)

>>replace p9sk1 with something better

I'm looking to start on this, does anyone have thoughts on improvements?
At the moment I am intending to just replace the DES keys with AES but
is there any call for more structural changes?

I was thinking that an overhaul using public keys might be appropriate
so that the auth server would still be a trusted key holder but without
secret keys having to leave the user's machine.

(9front mailing list was down so im sending to 9fans instead, sorry if
that's a bother)
