It can be encrypted much more easily then most other ways of communications. We could just port GPG on the OpenMoko. Spam is actually quite filterable. I think we should go with e-mail as the main way of messaging. It's well standardised and works with computers as well as phones. If we could make GNU Privacy Guard transparent enough, it would also encourage encryption usage among the users. Why re-invent the wheel? _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
