[ANN] NotaLogger: Notarization Code Generator and Logging Service

[Maurice Ling]

Hi everyone

I am pleased to announce "NotaLogger: Notarization Code Generator and Logging Service".

A common challenge to examine notarized (signed and dated) records is the trust that the date is accurate (not a backdate); hence, heavy responsibility will lie on the notarizer. NotaLogger reduces this responsibility by generating a random code (known as a notarization code), which can be appended to the notarization. The time and purpose for generating such a notarization code will be logged in the database; thus, acting as a third-party counter-signing of a notarization. The database will be periodically date-time stamped by NIST Internet Time Servers for added assurance.

Please kindly give it a try and let me know how it can be made even more useful.

Added XMLRPC and JSONRPC functions to NotaLogger. Example:

>>> from xmlrpclib import ServerProxy
>>> s = ServerProxy('http://ml-lab.bioinformatics.org/init/plugin_notalogger/call/xmlrpc')
>>> notarizecode = s.new_notarization('xmlrpc test', 'xmlrpc test', 'xmlrpc test',
'xmlrpc test', 'xmlrpc test', 20)
