Hi Gavin (the list escaped the cc...),

I participated also in the hacakathon Sunday @ OnlyOneTV and I felt that =
this had a strong chance to diverge. So - yes - I agree - no =
"constitution" changes now. Further, I have thought later on on the =
analogy of a clerk and a safe.

WHen you enter the bank you hand over your money to the clerk (one key) =
- then after the clerks wallet has been filled over the day _he_ =
transfers the money to the safe (3 keys). My point is do we really need =
the customer to bypass the clerk and have 3 key addresses, or could we =
just leave it to the/a client to implement the multisign transaction =
after the money has been received - as a transfer to a safe? This would =
greatly simplify the problem and cover the vast majority of use cases. =
Not covered in this is huge single transfers where the intruder of a =
single key system finds it profitable to reveal their intrusion by =
grabbing the entire wallet.

Put in another way - do we *really* need to couple the securing of the =
wallet to creating a new address type ?

Cheers,

M
