Duniter Web of Trust pallet

Duniter WoT is at the core of its identity system and is a big improvement compared to PGP WoT. It is a dynamic directed graph whose nodes are identities and edges certifications.

There are two instances:

• the main WoT, for every human
• the smith sub-WoT, for authorities

It has both static and dynamic rules, controlling the condition to join and remain member.

• static rules
  • minimum number of received certifications (min indegree)
  • maximum number of emited certifications (max outdegree)
  • distance criterion (see distance pallet)
• dynamic rules
  • time interval between two certifications
  • certification duration (see certification pallet)
  • membership renewal (see membership pallet)

This pallet's main role is to check the Web of Trust rules.
