This is an exploration of the distributed identity system described here.

Required software:

All of the servers here are based on node.js, and some number of 3rd party node modules are required to make them go. (npm is a good way to get these libraries)

• node.js (>= 0.4.5): http://nodejs.org/
• Several node.js 3rd party libraries - check package.json for details

Getting started:

1. install node
2. run npm install to installed 3rd party libraries into node_modules
3. run the top level run.js script: node ./run.js
4. visit the demo application ('rp') in your web browser (url output on the console at runtime)␁

Testing
