More than 1000 downloads per day is how often the new Gpg4win2 installer is currently downloaded.
One component is KDE4's Kleopatra and thus the new Gpg4win2 comes with a good subset of KDE on windows libraries. In other words: A widely visible, popular, stable release of (a small part of) KDE on windows! Something to be proud of as KDE and especially as KDE on windows community! The people that have been working on this (contracted) project for Intevation, KDAB and g10 code are part of this community and we like to say a big THANK YOU to all others that have enabled us to improve this great Free Software. http://gpg4win.org/ From the technical side: The Kleopatra version and the used libraries are based on the enterprise4 branches that KDAB and Intevation are also using for the Kontact on Windows releases. We really had to control quality at a point in time where KDE4 was moving too fast to give us the stability to build something else on top of it and deliver. In the process of Gpg4win2 and Kontact development, we did improve KDE4 on all platforms significantly - so I believe we did the right thing for best of KDE. Of course Gpg4win2 is not a perfect product, neither is Kleopatra. It is a start of an OpenPGP and S/MIME unified certificate handling application with the new gpgme ui-server concept. For everyone that is interested in more end-to-end cryptography it is important that windows users can take part in the communications and Gpg4win2 helps this cause.
