Hi Seahorse 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 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 three bounty opportunities to the Seahorse community. We are still in the process of deciding which bounties we can fund within our budget. So those are only proposals and there is no amount of money associated to them yet. If any of you is interested, please send an email to 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 volunteered to support and mentor people working on this (correct me if I'm wrong). We want to close this first round of proposals by the beginning of March. 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. Symmetric file encryption in Seahorse Nautilus ============================================== The `gpg` command-line can do symmetric encryption and we like to propose this type of encryption as a valid alternative to asymmetric encryption in certain use cases. Seahorse Nautilus can decrypt a symmetrically encrypted file but do not propose symmetric encryption as of now. That's GNOME bug #325803: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=325803 We propose a bounty to implement this feature. Signature verification in Seahorse Nautilus =========================================== Seahorse Nautilus should provide a menu entry to check either detached signature or text messages with cleartext signatures. I couldn't find a corresponding GNOME bug even though the issue affects Fedora 18. But there is a Ubuntu bug to track this issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/seahorse-nautilus/+bug/995623 We propose a bounty to implement this feature. Thank you for your attention,
Hi, sorry to bother you again with this. We haven't got any answer so far, so I'm sending you a last reminder before dropping the idea. Is anyone interested in one of those bounty proposal?
