Encryption of P2P traffic
Posted by johannes in Development on November 16th, 2009
Good news everyone! I made socket connections encrypted. These are used when two clients can directly talk to each others because they are in the same network. This is a shortcut to use instead of traffic over the server. These were unencrypted before, which always gave me a bad gut feeling.
Well, AES 128 bit is here.
(Code can be found in the ics repo).
Pre-release version
Posted by johannes in Development on November 15th, 2009
Just wanted to mention that the version advertised on the website, “Pre-release version built March 23, 2009″, is the most recent official and tested version.
It is based on the commit 2138676a800ae07ba172ef2f7ae46f2bce1c942d.
Everything after that is in flux, and not necessarily stable.
Stable means, functionality has been tested to work across Windows, MacOS and some Linux by a test protocol, there are screenshots or videos and executables for Windows and MacOS.
Future versions will be announced here. Subscribe to this blog’s feed.
