PGP Moose / by Greg Rose <ggr@usenix.org>

The aim of this software is to monitor the news
|
|
postings of moderators of USENET newsgroups, and to
|
|
automatically cancel forged messages purporting to
|
|
be approved. This can be extended to the approvals
|
|
of individual users to automatically cancel messages
|
|
that appear without having been authorised by the
|
|
user. This has (obviously) been prompted by the
|
|
recent spammings and other events.
|
|
This software and protocol is designed around
|
|
cryptographic signatures. The protocol is designed
|
|
to allow the use of different signature techniques.
|
|
This implemention assumes the use of PGP signatures,
|
|
but can be easily modified to use others, such as
|
|
the Digital Signature Standard. PGP was chosen for
|
|
its widespread availability around the world.
|
|
PGP, the crux of the cryptographic software, was
|
|
written by Phil Zimmermann <prz@acm.org>, who
|
|
otherwise has nothing to do with this. The
|
|
cryptographic framework was written by Greg Rose
|
|
<ggr@usenix.org>, as were the INN news system hooks.
