Hi Brendan,

I've posted a description (with screenshots) of Gajim 0.12's end-to-end
encryption UI: <http://necronomicorp.com/lab/gajim-0.12-esessions-ui>

Yes, Brendan showed me that IRL at the end of the XMPP Summit last month and I think it is quite sensible.

Thanks for that! I think this is indeed the approach we should take
for security: explain it properly, instead of trying to hide it.
Firefox is going that path as well, and makes it pretty hard to just
click the 'ok' button blindly without realizing you're doing something
that compromises security.

Agreed, it is appropriately frightening. :)
