Ability to retain outbox messages as requested by @duy As usually I've kept the state-file rebuild commit separate : https://github.com/burdges/pond/commit/f2fca17f067d72f2c9ff1e3f04c2e962adf39cd5 I kept the exposureTime business separate too, which makes less...

Users commonly press transact now twice because they want to send a message but the next transaction is a fetch. I believe this behavior is much much worse for anonymity...

I'm seemingly able to overwrite a file with the save file dialog without being prompted. I have not dug into the dialog's code to verify this, see if it's a...

We've discussed using erasure codes in https://github.com/paritytech/parity-signer/issues/457 and https://github.com/paritytech/parity-signer/issues/320#issuecomment-546734733 probably a rateless code like Raptorq although one should work out the overhead. And TXQR maybe works https://hub.packtpub.com/introducing-txqr-data-transfer-via-animated-qr-codes/ ref. https://github.com/w3f/research-internal/issues/143 If...

A priori, hasher code like this should really run without an alloc or std dependency, so in particular `Vec` should not be used anywhere. It may be unavoidable if the...

Just fyi, there is some "upcoming" Adept Secret Sharing paper by Rogaway and Bellare, presumably it's a sequel to https://web.cs.ucdavis.edu/~rogaway/papers/rcss.pdf but.. I've only seen the [talk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJv7-fxFVC8#t=43m) so far, so not...

I'd suggest using either shake128 or blake2x for the two places where you sample considerable data in create_discriminant.rs and proof_wesolowski.rs. It's only a negligible impact on performance, but it just...

Is there a reason for using the traits VDFParams and VDF over inherent methods? There are clear reasons to be generic over the group implementation, and ideally this should even...

You'll never actually want more or less than 32 byte internal hashes, right?

`ark_std::error` replaces `core::error` when not using std, but it winds up woefully inferior to the [`core::error`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/library/core/src/error.rs) behind `#[feature(error_in_core)]`. In particular `ark_std::error::Error` should've the `downcast*` methods on `core::error::Error`. We should probably...
