FEP-0806: Simple client-side encryption

https://codeberg.org/silverpill/feps/src/branch/main/0806/fep-0806.md

The FEP now includes the recommended algorithm parameters.

I consider it finished but I don't plan to continue working on my implementation or publishing to the main FEP repository. It would be better to focus on group messaging with forward secrecy (MLS or similar).

@silverpill nice! there is a workgroup meeting tomorrow for activitypub-e2ee, are you planning to be there?

@elle No, I don't want to participate in corporate takeover of fediverse. I didn't come here for gatekept workgroups and endless meetings.

Online meetings are tedious, especially as the group gets larger. But everyone I've interacted with in the E2EE group (and a few others) has had only the best intentions for the Fediverse.

So, I hope you won't avoid them just because they're "corporate".

Tedious? Well, you've got a point there.

It if would help, I'm happy to discuss all of the plans and discussions out here. That's actually how elle ended up attending this morning's meeting :)

@silverpill @elle

@benpate @elle The observed output and the very existence of SWICG is completely at odds with what I do and what I value about Fediverse, no matter what the intentions may be.

@silverpill @benpate yeah, fwiw they are the main standards body, though. i know you know that, just saying that there is value in trying to work together with them, since w/e protocol they land on will likely be adopted by Mastodon, and thus a very significant portion of the fediverse.

not saying an independent alternative impl is valueless, i'm serious about working on it, only that we're still at a stage in fedi-e2ee dev to meaningfully influence the protocol in a positive direction
