Module tor_netdoc::doc::authcert

Parsing implementation for Tor authority certificates

An “authority certificate” is a short signed document that binds a directory authority’s permanent “identity key” to its medium-term “signing key”. Using separate keys here enables the authorities to keep their identity keys securely offline, while using the signing keys to sign votes and consensuses.
