[#13] Are certificates required for titan upload?

Been working on titan submissions and gmcapsule is showing:

60 Client certificate required for upload

This seems to conflict with the titan spec which says:

token is necessary to defend against vandalism or spam โ€“ the only alternative would be the mandatory registering of client certificates. I feel that raises the barrier to entry quite considerably.

It seems like uploads should require either a token or a certificate, but certificate should be optional. The certificate requirement is creating a problem for me at the moment since I want users to be able to upload without needing a certificate.

Am I missing any obvious settings?

GmCapsule does allow certificate-less Titan uploads. They are disabled by default, and need to be enabled with a configuration setting. Unfortunately, I've forgotten to document it! Just add this to the [titan] section:

I'll fix the docs...

Thank you again, skyjake! I hope Iโ€™m not bothering you with all these questions. I always appreciate your help.
