Hey

I'm writing a new textboard that will revolutionize all textboards!

It is being written in the revolutionary programming language called Perl

This is what i have so far:


#!/usr/bin/perl
1;

I was thinking about authentication features.

The idea is to use cookies the least possible, and allow real anonimity, no ip tracking or recording or (permanent) sessions. So, we will keep an internal ID, and another table, to join the ID with a special code.

The user will not have an username, but rather, a key. This will be an url of the type

https://mywebsite.cool/key/7613kjksd8237643

You can store this in your favorites.

You will also asked to use a password when you access the url.

This password, with the key, will be processed and generates the special code. This code is related to the user ID.

By using this url-key the user will be able to:
-access the posts
-edit them
-change the unique name to be shown on posting (kinda like a username)
-access the profile (in the dumb case the user wants to add some personal info)
-change the email

You can reset your url-key and password by entering your email.

You will receive a special link to do this. Then you will get the chance to pick a new password and a new url-key.


The site will use cookies, but only for:
-Prefered stylesheet
-The checkbox that indicates if you prefer to post as anon or by using your name
-Catalog preferences

There will be a way to see all the posts a identified user has posted, even if he/she has changed their name.
