Archived. Not sure when. :( I'm not sure what if anything is a decent replacement/substitute.
In the README examples I see text about what I think is Certificate Transparency. That was definitely the first thing this made me think of. There's also a lot of talk in the project about CONIKS[1], & associate research papers are about 'bringing key transparency to end users'.
The scenarios[2] are interesting, but I'm not sure fully how this project helps. They explicitly call out Upspin for encrypted storage, which was linked recently[3].
It appears to make heavy use of the Trillian cryptographically verifiable data store[4].
