Hi! TorBirdy 0.1.0 is now out; we think it is the the best release so far and we encourage you to upgrade.
We welcome you to read more about this release and to comment on the release on the Tor blog: https://blog.torproject.org/blog/torbirdy-our-first-beta-release This release is the first in our beta series. It's still experimental - of course. Use at your own risk and especially if you're using it with Enigmail and GnuPG without a local[0] HTTP proxy. We've continued with updating the web page to show some TorBirdy screen shots: https://github.com/ioerror/torbirdy/wiki/Screen-shots Call for help: We're looking for assistance with Translations - if you'd like to translate TorBirdy, we'd gladly accept a patch that prepares TorBirdy for translation work. We now have an amazing number of translations! Even if you can't help translate, we'd love to know what languages matter to you or your friends - please let us know? We're especially looking for translations of TorBirdy into Persian and Japanese - if you'd like to help us translate, please contact us!

There are no known proxy leaks unless you use additional extensions that do not respect the proxy settings of Thunderbird. If you use GnuPG and Enigmail, we encourage you to use it with a local HTTP proxy due to the issues mentioned[0] regarding GnuPG. Here's the wiki page for TorBirdy: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/torbirdy Here's the latest XPI for TorBirdy: https://www.torproject.org/dist/torbirdy/torbirdy-0.1.0.xpi Here is a proper GPG signature for the latest XPI: https://www.torproject.org/dist/torbirdy/torbirdy-0.1.0.xpi.asc Here is the sha1sum of torbirdy-0.1.0.xpi: f61015166205e2cf7f30b525d0c13958213734d9 We no longer offer files for download on github as they have decided to remove the feature: https://github.com/blog/1302-goodbye-uploads The GnuPG signature that signed this email is also the same key that signs the TorBirdy releases. To learn more about signature verification of Tor Project related software such as TorBirdy please visit this page: https://www.torproject.org/docs/verifying-signatures.html The plugin on AMO has been preliminarily reviewed and we are still in the review process. It is again possible (Hooray!) to install TorBirdy directly from Thunderbird or by downloading the extension in a web browser from Mozilla's website: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/torbirdy/ We believe that users who installed previous versions from Mozilla's addons site should receive this update automatically. It may take some time before Mozilla approves this update but it should eventually show up as an available update. We now upload a full XPI and GnuPG signature for every new release to the Tor Project's web servers: https://www.torproject.org/dist/torbirdy/ All the best, Jacob [0] https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/2846 _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
