Services/KeyExchange/Timeline

Overview

See the J-PAKE for an explanation of what we're doing. This is an overall timeline for the various pieces involved.

This is a work in progress, but we aim to have client code + a public-facing server to test against by November 1st. Depending on hardware order + deployment time, we may not have real infra in place until November 10th (dates TBD)
