# Nearenough
A Netty-based implementation of the [Roughtime](https://roughtime.googlesource.com/roughtime/)
secure time synchronization protocol.
# Status
| Server | Work in-progress. Not ready for production use.|
| Client | Work in-progress. Not ready for production use.|

* [Roughtime project](https://roughtime.googlesource.com/roughtime)
* [Netty project](http://netty.io/)
# Building
Nearenough bundles all required dependencies in the `lib` directory. Add those `.jar` files to
your IDE's project/library path. Building is IDE only for the moment; a Maven build is TODO.
# About the Roughtime Protocol
From the [Roughtime](https://roughtime.googlesource.com/roughtime) project page:
> Roughtime is a protocol that aims to achieve rough time synchronisation in a secure way
> that doesn't depend on any particular time server, and in such a way that, if a time
> server does misbehave, clients end up with cryptographic proof of it.

The protocol was created by Adam Langley and Robert Obryk at Google.
