Great stuff Matt!

I have an implementation of Shamir's Secret Sharing here: =
https://github.com/bitsofproof/bop-bitcoin-client-misc/blob/master/src/mai=
n/java/com/bitsofproof/supernode/misc/ShamirsSecretSharing.java

What was missing was nice serialization. Thanks a lot for defining and =
starting the process.

 I will shortly adapt my code and check your test vectors.

Regards,

Tamas Blummer
