Hi! After struggling for 6 month with Windows pecularities, we are finally pleased to announce the *first stable release of Gpg4win*, version 1.0.0! The gpg4win project aims at updating the gpg4win Windows installation package with GnuPG encryption tool, associated applications and documentation on a regular basis. Especially the documentation (handbooks "Einsteiger" and "Durchblicker") are directly maintained as part of the gpg4win project. It is an international project. Due to the origin of the project the German language is fully supported. As of now the the handbooks are only available in German. People helping with translations are very welcome! The main difference compared to all other similar approaches (mainly GnuPP, GnuPT, Windows Privacy Tools and GnuPG-Basics) is that the first thing developed was the *gpg4win-Builder*. This builder allows to easily create new gpg4win.exe installers with updated components. The builder runs on any decent Unix system, preferable Debian GNU/Linux. Almost all products are automatically cross-compiled for integration into the installer. With this concept it is hoped to *prevent quick aging of the* *installer package*. This is due to easier updating and less dependancy on single developers. For installation instuctions, please visit http://www.gpg4win.org or read on. Developers who want to *build an installer* need to get the following files from http://wald.intevation.org/projects/gpg4win/ : gpg4win-1.0.0.tar.bz2 (4.0M) gpg4win-1.0.0.tar.bz2.sig The second file is a digital signature of the the first file. Either check that this signature is fine or compare with the checksums given below. (see also http://www.gnupg.org/download/integrity_check.html) The *ready to use installer* is available at: http://ftp.gpg4win.org/gpg4win-1.0.0.exe (6.8M) http://ftp.gpg4win.org/gpg4win-1.0.0.exe.sig Or using the ftp protocol at: ftp://ftp.gpg4win.org/gpg4win/gpg4win-1.0.0.exe (6.8M) ftp://ftp.gpg4win.org/gpg4win/gpg4win-1.0.0.exe.sig SHA1 and MD5 checksums for these files are given below. A separate installer with the the sources used to build the above installer is available at: ftp://ftp.gpg4win.org/gpg4win/gpg4win-src-1.0.0.exe (40M) ftp://ftp.gpg4win.org/gpg4win/gpg4win-src-1.0.0.exe.sig Most people don't need this source installer; it is merely stored on that server to satisfy the conditions of the GPL. In general it is better to get the gpg4win builder tarball (see above) and follow the instructions in the README to build new installers; building the installer is not possible on Windows machines and works best on current Debian GNU/Linux systems (we use the mingw32 package from Sid).

Hi!
We are pleased to announce the availibility of Gpg4win, version 1.0.1.
The gpg4win project aims at updating the gpg4win Windows installation
package with GnuPG encryption tool, associated applications and
documentation on a regular basis. Especially the documentation
(handbooks "Einsteiger" and "Durchblicker") are directly
maintained as
part of the gpg4win project.
It is an international project. Due to the origin of the project the
German language is fully supported. As of now the the handbooks are
only available in German. People helping with translations are very
welcome!
The main difference compared to all other similar approaches (mainly
GnuPP, GnuPT, Windows Privacy Tools and GnuPG-Basics) is that the
first thing developed was the *gpg4win-Builder*. This builder allows
to easily create new gpg4win.exe installers with updated components.
The builder runs on any decent Unix system, preferable Debian
GNU/Linux. Almost all products are automatically cross-compiled for
integration into the installer.
With this concept it is hoped to *prevent quick aging of the*
*installer package*. This is due to easier updating and less
dependancy on single developers.
Major changes in this version are:
* New: Another version of the installer without the PDF manuals is
now build in addition to the standard one.
* Manuals are not installed in the quick launch bar anymore.
* The manuals are now searchable even for words with Umlauts.
* Included components are:
GnuPG: 1.4.3
WinPT: 0.11.12 [*]
GPA: 0.7.3
GPGol: 0.9.10 [*]
GPGee: 1.3.1 [*]
Sylpheed-Claws: 1.9.100cvs124
Einsteiger: 2.0.1 [*]
Durchblicker: 2.0.1 [*]
(Marked packages are updated since the last release)
For installation instuctions, please visit http://www.gpg4win.org or
read on.
Developers who want to *build an installer* need to get the following
files from http://wald.intevation.org/projects/gpg4win/ :
gpg4win-1.0.1.tar.bz2 (4.0M)
gpg4win-1.0.1.tar.bz2.sig
The second file is a digital signature of the the first file. Either
check that this signature is fine or compare with the checksums given
below. (see also http://www.gnupg.org/download/integrity_check.html)
The *ready to use installer* is available at:
http://ftp.gpg4win.org/gpg4win-1.0.1.exe (6.6M)
http://ftp.gpg4win.org/gpg4win-1.0.1.exe.sig
Or using the ftp protocol at:
ftp://ftp.gpg4win.org/gpg4win/gpg4win-1.0.1.exe (6.6M)
ftp://ftp.gpg4win.org/gpg4win/gpg4win-1.0.1.exe.sig
SHA1 and MD5 checksums for these files are given below.
If you don't need the German PDF manuals, you might alternatively
download the "light" version of the installer:
http://ftp.gpg4win.org/gpg4win-light-1.0.1.exe (4.5M)
http://ftp.gpg4win.org/gpg4win-light- 1.0.1.exe.sig
or using the ftp protocol at:
ftp://ftp.gpg4win.org/gpg4win/gpg4win-1.0.1.exe (4.5M)
ftp://ftp.gpg4win.org/gpg4win/gpg4win-1.0.1.exe.sig
A separate installer with the the sources used to build the above
installer is available at:
ftp://ftp.gpg4win.org/gpg4win/gpg4win-src-1.0.1.exe (40M)
ftp://ftp.gpg4win.org/gpg4win/gpg4win-src-1.0.1.exe.sig
Most people don't need this source installer; it is merely stored on
that server to satisfy the conditions of the GPL. In general it is
better to get the gpg4win builder tarball (see above) and follow the
instructions in the README to build new installers; building the
installer is not possible on Windows machines and works best on
current Debian GNU/Linux systems (we use the mingw32 package from
Sid).
SHA1 checksums are:
4d111814dfd4b0b7dd1a8a0fb81beaee477693dc gpg4win-1.0.1.tar.bz2
c55f73561a2e013599b1c9aa6cb1291abd06c18d gpg4win-1.0.1.exe
f8e9dd1cf3225fbd6e66454e6eda603a21d436f7 gpg4win-light-1.0.1.exe

MD5 checksums are:

3cb95e8ab38f95e16b9b2ed161a0cd9c gpg4win-src-1.0.1.exe
We like to thank the authors of the included packages, the NSIS
authors, all other contributors and first of all, those folks who
stayed with us and tested the early releases of gpg4win.
Happy hacking,
Jan, Marcus, Timo and Werner
