If you need an invite, Deo, PM me.

Deozaan:
How did you get an account? Did you install the Keybase filesystem and request access, or did you manage to get an invite from someone?

I got a Keybase invite. Actually I haven't even tried the FS, as I was more interested in the keys discovery part, the multiple identities proofs based model in alternative to PGP Web of Trust, and the saltpack crypto.

Thanks. I installed the filesystem and requested an account about the same time I originally created this thread. I was trying to get an idea of how long the wait times were, wondering if you had requested an account about the same time I did or not. So I guess since you got an invitation, the wait time is still a mystery. :-\

If you need an invite, Deo, PM me.

OK. Thanks. :)

Deozaan:
I installed the Keybase client. But I haven't found any information in the CLI or documentation about how to access the filesystem. Where does this stuff reside?

wraith808:
Check out the following resources:

https://keybase.pub/
https://keybase.io/docs/kbfs

Short of it is that it's released to a limited few.

If you're a Keybase user on OSX or Debian/Ubuntu and want early access to try it, email me at [email protected]. Make sure to read all the notes below. Windows users will be a couple weeks behind.

Thanks. I was aware of http://keybase.pub/ but that's just a way to browse (read-only) the public folders. It looks like Windows users are out of luck for the time being on using (writing to) the Keybase filesystem. That's a pity, as it was the filesystem that I most wanted to try out.

I guess this is just another project I need to tuck away in the back of my mind and check on in a year or so to see if they've made any progress.
