[Gaim-e-developer] my work for the weekend

[Eric K. <nav...@ya...>]

Alright, I'm about to sumbit to cvs some of the work
I've done this weekend. Well, mostly today. I have
some questions that I would like to ask. I'm trying to
remember them all right now.  
--Alright, a small problem with the handshake. I
initiate the handshake, but they have to have my
public key in their keyring?  That doesn't make a lot
of sense.  It would be easier if we could set it up so
that the person who initiates the encryption has the
public key of the other. 
--At some point it would be cool for us to be able to
transfer the other guys public key over and have it
auto put the key in his keyring. 
--I think I fixed a problem with people starting the
plugin after they have started gaim.  In this
situation there wasn't a way for the person to put his
passphrase in, but I take care of this as a check when
people toggle their little encryption button.
--Speaking of which, I got the encyption button to
work, right now it just cycles back and forth.  No
functionality to it.  Well other then checking for the
passphrase.  
--I don't know what to put in the toggle callback to
start/stop the encryption. Right now I haven't been
able to sift through all of the code to find out what
to send. 
--There is a catch 22 with the toggle button though.
well a possible situation at least.  The way to work
it properly is to send a CRYPTO_OFF when we close that
conversation window. That way when the window is
started again the handshake has to be done again with
a new key.. that way I can assume that encryption will
never be set with a conversation window being created.
--I created a HACKING-gaim-e file as well. I wanted to
create it as way to explain how we are doing it.  That
way others can see it and help with the code. 
that's all for now. 
tell me what you think.  
peace
