Is CS still alive? #7

Open xaminmo opened 7 years ago

xaminmo commented 7 years ago

The latest commit here or in the forks was 11 months ago for 0.7.4.1, and 12 months ago for 0.7.5.0, except one late-merge in DouglasKastle's personal fork.

Kyle replied to a query 7 weeks ago, implying he's still subscribed at least.

Has interest waned in CipherShed, or is the current work just not pushed?

For comparison, VeraCrypt's last release was still 8 months ago for security and performance; however, they have plenty of GIT activity ongoing.

NOTE: This is not criticism. Just worry and curiosity, hoping for clarification.

While waning interest may be contributing to lack of activity, we are still alive. However, the current group of people who still seem to show intention of development is kinda isolated to Jason and me, but we often have more immediate things to attend to.

Regarding current work not being pushed: It is my understanding that some stuff broke while trying to integrate EFI support into the current installer. Our current roadblock is finding documentation for our use case of WiX, which has been proving to be very problematic.

Seeing the Network, I think DouglasKastle's fork is of personal interest. I don't think there was intention to merge with us.
