Summer of Code: Plan for the grand finale
I passed the second evaluation phase 🙂 Now begins the final spurt, as the last month of GSoC has begun. My main goal can be summarized as follows: Get everything merged! To get that done, I have to polish up my smack-openpgp branch which has grown to a size of 7000 loc. There are still…

Summer of Code: Second evaluation phase
Quite some time has passed since I bothered you with my last post 🙂 A lot has happened since, I have been making steady process in both smack-openpgp, as well as pgpainless. One big step that I took was to get rid of smack-openpgp-bouncycastle, which now has been merged into smack-openpgp. Having modular code may…

Summer of Code: Checkstyle to the rescue!
Today I added some checkstyle rules to PGPainless.Checkstyle is a gradle plugin, which checks the source code for style violations. Some say, strict checkstyle rules are unnecessary and that it is annoying to be held back from pushing a commit to the master branch only to fix “style issues” for half an hour. I must…

Summer of Code: The demotivating week
I guess in anybodies project, there is one week that stands out from the others by being way less productive than the rest. I just had that week. I had to take one day off on Friday due to circulation problems after a visit at the doctor (syringes suck!), so I had the joy of…

Summer of Code: Evaluation and Key Lengths
The week of the first evaluation phase is here. This is the fourth week of GSoC – wow, time flew by quite fast this year 🙂 This week I plan to switch my OX implementation over to PGPainless in order to have a working prototype which can differentiate between sign, crypt and signcrypt elements. This…

Summer of Code: PGPainless 2.0
In previous posts, I mentioned that I forked Bouncy-GPG to create PGPainless, which will be my simple to use OX/OpenPGP API. I have some news regarding that, since I made a radical decision. I’m not going to fork Bouncy-GPG anymore, but instead write my own OpenPGP library based on BouncyCastle. The new PGPainless will be…

Summer of Code: Command Line OX Client!
As I stated earlier, I am working on a small XMPP command line test client, which is capable of sending and receiving OpenPGP encrypted messages. I just published a first version 🙂 Creating command line clients with Smack is super easy. You basically just create a connection, instantiate the manager classes of features you want…

Summer of Code: Polishing the API
The third week of coding is nearing its end and I’m quite happy with how my project turned out so far. The last two days I was ill, so I haven’t got anything done during that period, but since I started my work ahead of time during the boding period, I think I can compensate…

Summer of Code: Advancing the prototype
It has been a week since my last blog post, so it is time for an update. I successfully tested my OX client against an experimental Gajim plugin written by Philip Hörist. Big thanks for his help during the testing 🙂 My implementation can now backup the users secret key in a private PubSub node,…
