We should announce we are still kicking ass and writing awesome software. I'm on it!

dgoulet commented 11 years ago

and put it on the project page as well! :) and maybe also change the description of the project on github ehhe :)

DrWhax commented 11 years ago

I'll fix the project page! Do you have any descriptions of the project you would like to see?

dgoulet commented 11 years ago

Ya I was suppose to send a description to tjrs about that like three days ago... and it's not for a lack of trying, I just don't have enough time for... well everything! eheh

If you can come up with something I'm sure it will be good and I can check it also if you want to. Or else, I can come up with something in a few days I guess and hope.

Description: "Irssi-otr is a plugin for the popular "Internet Relay Chat" client Irssi. OTR provides encryption, authentication, deniability and perfect forward secrecy. It currently has libotrv4 support."

and maybe add that it's still in alpha release meaning that it should not be relied on with your life :).

How about: "Irssi-otr is a plugin for the popular "Internet Relay Chat" client Irssi. OTR provides encryption, authentication, deniability and perfect forward secrecy. It currently has libotrv4 support. The current release is alpha, use with extreme caution."

dgoulet commented 11 years ago

Like it! :)

Pushed! https://github.com/cryptodotis/crypto.is/commit/8cd19980db21d64123cb4183164ce36c79c95e73

I think the blogpost should wait until we have a more or less stable release. Thoughts?

dgoulet commented 11 years ago

Well, no user no improvement :)

How about a blog post that tells people that this project is now being rewritten and maintained. The alpha release cycle now relies on people using it, testing it and reporting bugs (not on twitter ideally ;).

At the stable release, we simply do another blog post.

I guess the more the merrier for blog post on security projects :). Makes sense?

While I agree of having a blogpost, we might better fix the important bugs we have open at the moment before putting anything out. In the meantime, I can come up with a blog post to explain that we're working on a rewritten plugin which will be maintained.

Then let's discuss things later about a stable blogpost when we are actually there? :) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux)
