Simple Summary

Ensure that alpha messages that were created before programmable envelopes were implemented still work

Abstract

Create a programmable envelope that conforms to the alpha payload.

Specification

  • URL MUST be decrypted from encryptedURL
  • ContentsHash MUST be decrypted from encryptedURL then split the value by -
  • IntegrityHash is encryptedHash

Rationale

Forwards and backwards compatibility is a requirement that is intended to be implemented by v1.0.0. Tackling this now permits a test of the strategies used to achieve it.

Backwards Compatibility

This will ensure backwards and forward compatibility from alpha version

Is the intention to keep the alpha envelope forever?
