A deprecated Emacs Tool to communicate with the Matrix.org Ecosystem.
I started work on this in 2014 as a simple demonstration, and a minimal implementation of the Matrix client-to-server API[fn:1:https://www.matrix.org/docs/guides/client-server-api/]. At the time I was very invested in building a Personal Area Network and figured that a mesh network built on top of Matrix could be a compelling system for message passing between different components of this network.
I grew disillusioned with my ability to be trusted with implementing cryptographic systems, and tired of supporting a beta software I'd never finish and I was invested in Matrix's promise of decentralized End-to-End encryption, so I shelved it, and left it to anyone to pick up and run with. Since then, a prolific Emacs developer named alphapapa picked it up and ran with it, and has done great work building a completely new client: //github.com/alphapapa/ement.el
There is a future for this software in my ecosystem, and I have a Goal begin working on it again at some point soon. Matrix.org has produced an end-to-end cryptography "proxy" which can function to provide end-to-end primitives and a D-BUS API to control those primitives from a client or command line. This tool is called Pantalaimon.
