Subject: [OTR-announce] libotr and gaim-otr 2.0.0 are online
Message-ID: <20050209011341.GK3885@smtp.paip.net>

We've put libotr and gaim-otr version 2.0.0 online.  Check them out at
http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/

We'll be demoing gaim-otr 2.0.0 at CodeCon (http://www.codecon.org/) on
Friday, along with the localhost OTR Proxy for AIM (now with a partial
GUI).  If you'll be in the San Francisco area, come on out!

    Version 2.0.0 of libotr released. Changes from 1.0.4:

	- Machine-readable records can now be attached to Data Messages
	  inside the private channel.
	- New OtrlUserState datatype encapsulates private keys and known
	  fingerprints, instead of having a single global list.
	- Added libotr.m4 for helping to autoconfiscate packages that
	  use libotr.
	- Resend the last message if it caused a re-keying.
	- New OtrlPolicy datatype allows you to specify a per-connection
	  OTR policy: never use OTR, OTR only if manually requested,
	  automatically start OTR if possible, refuse to not use OTR. 

    Version 2.0.0 of gaim-otr released. Changes from 1.0.3:

	- Clicking the OTR button produces a notice in the conversation
	  window that it's doing something.
	- Added default and per-buddy policy selection: never use OTR,
	  OTR only if manually requested, automatically start OTR if
	  possible, refuse to not use OTR.
	- The OTR: button disappears if a particular buddy is set to
	  never use OTR.
	- Resend the last message if it caused a re-keying.
	- OTR control messages are no longer displayed as if they were
	  received as IM messages.
	- New multi-page UI
	- Send a control message to your buddy if you terminate a
	  private conversation with him.
	- Updated gaim-otr to match libotr 2.0.0 API.
	- Separated gtk-specific code from general gaim code, with help
	  from Evan Schoenberg.

Subject: [OTR-announce] libotr-2.0.1 online
Message-ID: <20050216220548.GF2781@smtp.paip.net>

libotr 2.0.1 is online, fixing the problems reported by Evan and Paul:

- Don't send encrypted messages to a buddy who has disconnected his
  private connection with us.
- Don't show the user the "the last message was resent" notice if the
  message has never actually been sent before.
- Fix a crash bug that happened when messages were retransmitted under
  certain circumstances.

gaim-otr didn't change; just install the new shared library.

[The Windows version uses a static library, so if you're a Windows user,
you'd grab version 2.0.0-2 of the Windows installer instead.]

Subject: [OTR-announce] otrproxy 0.2.0 is up.  Now with GUI!
Message-ID: <20050224215143.GC980@smtp.paip.net>

We've just put up Linux, Windows, and OSX packages (and source code, of
course) for version 0.2.0 of otrproxy.

otrproxy is a localhost proxy that should be usable with almost any
AIM/ICQ client, on Linux, Windows, OSX, and probably others.  It enables
the user to have "Off-the-Record" private conversations.

This is version 0.2.0, which is a pre-release for people to play with.
While we think it will work for most people, it's certainly missing some
features, and probably has some bugs (gasp!).

If you use it, please send feedback (good and bad) to the otr-users
list, or to the dev team at <otr at cypherpunks.ca>.

Thanks, and get it while it's hot!  ;-)
