+     "The library provides a sort of useful classes, algorithms, and
+high-level protocols to support an application programmer in writing such
+software.  The most remarkable feature is the absence of a trusted third
+party (TTP), i.e. neither a central game server nor trusted hardware
+components are necessary.
+
+The corresponding cryptographic problem, actually called Mental Poker, has
+been studied since 1979 (Shamir, Rivest, and Adleman) by many authors (see the
+first section of [St05] for a short survey).  LibTMCG provides the first
+practical implementation of such protocols.")

+Generation (DKG) and Threshold Cryptography for OpenPGP.  The generated public
+keys are compatible with the standard and thus can be used by any
+RFC4880-compliant application (e.g. GnuPG).  The main purposes of this
+software are distributing power among multiple parties, eliminating single
+points of failure, and increasing the difficulty of side-channel attacks on
+private key material.
+
+DKGPG consists of a bunch of simple command-line programs.  The current
+implementation is in experimental state and should NOT be used in production
+environments.")
