In an effort to make this technology +accessible for other projects and stimulate the emergence of both complementary +and competing projects, this project-agnostic library is +[published on codeberg.org](https://codeberg.org/keyoxide/doipjs) and open +sourced under the +[Apache-2.0](https://codeberg.org/keyoxide/doipjs/src/branch/main/LICENSE) +license. -There are three claim formats: -- uri: the claim is formulated as `openpgp4fpr:FINGEPRPRINT` -- message: the claim is formulated as `[Verifying my OpenPGP key: openpgp4fpr:FINGEPRPRINT]` -- fingerprint: the claim is formulated as `FINGEPRPRINT` +## Community + +There's a [Keyoxide Matrix room](https://matrix.to/#/#keyoxide:matrix.org) where +we discuss everything DOIP and Keyoxide. + +## Donate + +Please consider [donating](https://liberapay.com/Keyoxide/) if you think this +project is a step in the right direction for the internet. + +## Funding + +This library was realized with funding from +[NLnet](https://nlnet.nl/project/Keyoxide/).
