Hi GNOME community,
I'm part of the people developing the live system called Tails [1].
Tails has a strong focus on privacy, anonymity, encryption, etc. and of
course includes GNOME and Seahorse.
We are now preparing a bounties program to help upstream developers work
on important bugs or interesting features for Tails. And we would like
to propose a bounty opportunity for Seahorse.
We are still in the process of deciding which bounties we can fund
within our budget. So it is only a proposal and there is no amount of
money associated to it yet. If any of you is interested, please send
an email to me or tails boum org and include:
- A short intro to who you are and the work you've already done in
Seahorse.
- A estimate workload to fulfill the task.
- A budget and calendar proposal.
Keep in mind that your estimates should include coding, review,
debugging and documentation. Stef Walter from Seahorse volunteered to
support and mentor people working on this.
SSH Keys in Seahorse
====================
The import of SSH keys in Seahorse doesn't work.
That's GNOME bug #550736, and still holds on Fedora 18 Live:
- Importing a SSH public key returns: "Cannot display a file of this
type." error message.
- Importing a SSH private key returns: "No user has logged in." after
being asked for the passphrase and a label.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=550736
As far as I understood, this is a larger scale issue related to
gnome-keyring. Maybe Stef Walter can provide more information on this.
We propose a bounty to fix this bug.
Thank you for your attention,
