create a component to do local browser id verifications using pyvep
Blocks: 717318
No longer blocks: 717301
The lib does the following: - browser id verification (like pyvep) - token creation, given a shared secret etc
Summary: wrap PyVep → create a C++ crypto lib
Depends on: 719932

The BrowserId verification is done in two different steps. The first thing is the Json Web Token verification, in C++ as well. I've started something here: http://github.com/ametaireau/jwtcpp

Are you planning to build the library from the ground up or extend something such as openssl / NSS ?
I'm building something on top of Crypto++ mainly because of the possible speedups when using specific specific hardware (not reinventing any crypto here).
