we can probably automate part of that process by communicating over bitmessage or direct p2p connections.
But that will take more time and I'll have to ask FellowTraveler how he'd like it to be done.

The answer is: When a user wishes to move Bitcoins into OT, he will be sending the coins multi-sig, using your code as described above. As long as I am able to send and verify those coins, and as long as I am able to perform multi-sig votes to remove those coins back out, then I will be able to do the rest on the OT side. Bitmessage will not be needed for this, but if you want to get started on the Bitmessage integration, it's definitely needed for other pieces.

I haven't had a proper look at the other parts of Moneychanger/OT yet so I'm not sure what we can and can't do.
Just to clarify:
As part of the escrow protocol each involved party has to share things like public keys, transaction ids, signed transactions,.. with each other via a secure communication channel.

For testing we can just share those things via messenger and enter them in textboxes but that won't be very convenient or secure :p
Is communication between the parties something I don't have to worry about?
