Hi all,
Here is the first draft of the Web Payments technology analysis between PaySwarm and OpenTransact:
The analysis is fairly high-level. I tried not to get too in-depth for each feature, rather limiting each sub-topic to a brief introduction to the feature, how PaySwarm addresses the feature and how OpenTransact addresses the feature. It's around 5,300 words, 12 pages printed.
I will have inevitably made mistakes or overlooked some portion of OpenTransact, and I hope that Pelle suggests corrections in order to make the analysis as factually accurate as possible.
During the review, I noticed a few security concerns that I have with OpenTransact as well as a few design issues that I'd like Pelle to expand upon. I touch on them in the blog post above, but they really should have more focus put on them as they're basic design considerations that any financial system should take into account.
