ago.
Good to know! Thank you for the update. Do you have a homepage? How about
API documentation?
None exist online as far as I know, but Timo would know for sure. The
code is documented, so it is easy to generate API documentation. I
placed the latest generated HTML online at:
http://josefsson.org/gnutls/manual/opencdk/opencdk-api.html
Generating it using Doxygen or GTK-DOC instead, to yield nicer
formatting etc, shouldn't be too hard.
I have been using OpenCDK for several projects at ePoint System, but seeing
it abandoned, I considered switching to OpenPGP:SDK, which, unfortunately,
is not up to the task yet.
GnuTLS uses OpenCDK and Nikos has been quite active in working on it
recently, to make it implement the latest OpenPGP-in-TLS RFC.
I strongly believe that having a widely used C library for common OpenPGP
functionality would be great for the wider acceptance and use of the standard.
It is very good to hear that OpenCDK is supported again!
Right.
