Description: GNU's payment system operator.
GNU Taler is the privacy-preserving digital payment
system from the GNU project. This package contains the
core logic that must be run by the payment service
provider or bank to offer payments to consumers and
merchants. At least one exchange must be operated
per currency.
In addition to the core logic, an exchange operator
must also have a system running the "offline" logic
which is packaged as taler-exchange-offline. It is
recommended to keep the "offline" logic on a system
that is never connected to the Internet. However, it
is also possible to run the "offline" logic directly
on the production system, especially for testing.
Finally, an exchange operator should also be prepared
to run a taler-auditor.

Description: Tools for managing the GNU Taler exchange offline keys.
A GNU Taler exchange uses an offline key to sign its online
keys, fee structure, bank routing information and other meta
data. The offline signing key is the root of the Taler PKI
that is then embedded in consumer wallets and merchant backends.
This package includes the tool to download material to sign
from the exchange, create signatures, and upload the resulting
signatures to the exchange.

Description: GNU's payment system auditor
Description: GNU's payment system auditor.
GNU Taler is the privacy-preserving digital payment
system from the GNU project. This package contains the
auditor logic. It verifies that the taler-exchange run
by a payment service provider is correctly performing
its bank transactions and thus has the correct balance
in its escrow account. Each exchange operator is
expected to make use of one or more auditors as part
of its regulatory compliance.
