tl;dr: We have a new Keysign release with support for exchanging keys via the Internet. I am very proud to announce this version of GNOME Keysign, because it marks an important step towards a famous “1.0”. In fact, it might be just that. But given the potentially complicated new dependencies, I thought it’d be nice … Continue reading GNOME Keysign 0.9.9
It’s been a while after my last post. This time, we have many exciting news to share.

Oh boy, it’s been a while that we’ve released GNOME Keysign 0.9. We changed quite a few things since last time I’ve reported but the most visible change are the new widgets which I already announced last time. Now it should be much easier to make changes with the GUI and experiment with designs. Other … Continue reading GNOME Keysign 0.9 released
I’ve just release GNOME Keysign 0.8. It’s an exciting step towards a more mature codebase with less cruft and pieces of code moved to places where they should be more discoverable. To get the app, we have a tarball as usual, or an experimental flatpak (see below). Also notice that the repository has changed. The … Continue reading GNOME Keysign 0.8
I keep forgetting about blogging about the progress we’re making with GNOME Keysign. Since last time I reported several new cool developments happened. This 0.7 release fixes a few bugs and should increase compatibility with recent gpg versions. The most noticeable change is probably a message when you don’t have a private key. I tried … Continue reading GNOME Keysign 0.7
It’s been a while since I reported on GNOME Keysign. The last few releases have been exciting, because they introduced nice features which I have been waiting long for getting around to implement them. So GNOME Keysign is an application to help you in the OpenPGP Keysigning process. That process will eventually require you to … Continue reading GNOME Keysign 0.6
For this year’s GUADEC I like to have a place and time to do some keysigning. I think the last official Keysigning Party was held during the GUADEC in Gran Canaria. So I reserved something on the official BoF wiki, we’ll meet on 30.07 at 16:00 in Room 2.7. To strengthen the Web of Trust … Continue reading Keysigning BoF at GUADEC
Just like last year, I managed to be invited to the Privacy Enhancing Technologies Conference to talk about GNOME. First, Simone Fischer-Huebner from Karlstadt University talked about her projects which are on the edge of security, cryptography, and usability, which I find a fascinating area to be in. She presented outcomes of her Prismacloud project … Continue reading Talking at PETCon2018 in Hamburg, Germany and OpenPGP Email Summit in Brussels, Belgium
As last year I was honoured to be invited to OpenSuSE Conference in Nuremberg, Germany. The event has grown and I felt a relaxed yet productive atmosphere when entering the venue.

Unsurprisingly, the biggest European Free Software event happened in Brussels, Belgium again. I’m talking about FOSDEM, of course. It’s a fixed entry in many peoples calendar and always a good excuse to visit Brussels 🙂 I’m a bit late to report on what talks I managed to see as others have already covered some of … Continue reading Attended FOSDEM 2017
