Great stuff Matt! I have an implementation of Shamir's Secret Sharing here: https://github.com/bitsofproof/bop-bitcoin-client-misc/blob/master/src/main/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.
