| Rationale: Claws-Mail maintains [[https://www.claws-mail.org/win32/|its own installer for windows]], which often is more current. Supporting it by building in into the Gpg4win 2.0.0 installer was a success, this helped the initiative to get a windows installer and it spread the word. |
General focus: GpgOL and bugfixes. * More but less secure automation support in GpgOL for OpenPGP (default off) * Basic support to read encrypted subjects in GpgOL * Better attachment handling in GpgOL * Option to decrypt permanently in GpgOL * Update to latest KDE and Qt with performance improvements for Kleopatra. |
| Line 17: | Line 22: |
| It makes Gpg4win easier to maintain, if we decouple the installers. There is less work to be done, especially less quality control and even some space is safed. |
