[David M. C. <da...@gm...>]

I'm pleased to announce the 1.0.0 version "Minted gnoMint" of gnoMint: a
graphical X.509 Certification Authority management tool.

This version is the first stable release of gnoMint.

This version includes some bug fixes and improvements over the 0.9.9 release
candidate version:


   - Added a new full Russian translation, thanks to Aquanaut. Added Finnish
   translation.
   - Other updated translations: Spanish, Slovak.
   - Added forgotten crlgen function to gnomint-cli text-based interface.
   - Fix compilation with GnuTLS 2.8.0.
   - While creating a new certificate, the program now checks if new cert
   expiration date is after the CA expiration date. In that case, the program
   shows an info message and set the new cert expiration date to the CA
   expiration date.


About gnoMint:
==============

gnoMint is a tool for an easy creation and management of Certification
Authorities. It allows a fancy visualization of all the pieces that
conform a CA: x509 certificates, CSRs, CRLs...

Currently, it allows the creation of CAs, CSRs and Certificates, and
export both public and private parts of them into PEM formatted files.
It manages the revocation of the created certificates, as well as the
creation of CRLs.

gnoMint is now perfectly usable for managing a CA that emits certificates
able to:

   - Authenticate people or machines in VPNs (IPSec or other protocols);
   - Secure HTTP communications with SSL/TLS secured web servers;
   - Authenticate and cipher HTTP communications through web-client
   certificates;
   - Sign and/or crypt e-mails


For compiling it, its dependencies are:

   - GTK+ 2.10 or newer
   - Gnome
   - SQLite 3
   - libGnuTLS 2.0 or newer
