It's true that we don't have a research paper per se for the multiparty protocol, but we do have a specification document [1] as well as implementations in Objective-C, Java and JavaScript. The specification, as well as the implementations, have received both professional audits (from cryptographers) as well as community audits. The reason we don't have a research paper published is simply because we're working on on…

Make the plain C version the canonical version. (Things like Emscripten may be useful here for your JS use-case.) This is how libotr does it, and for good reason. Then, others can use it, and perhaps you will get meaningful free auditing. What you're doing no…
