So I was able to add @Frodo. Trying to add @fluxer555 failed. Not sure about the others listed above yet.
This software definitely looks interesting. Secure messaging, forums, and file transfers all in one place. What's not to like?
I noticed on the Electronic Frontier Foundation's secure messaging scorecard that the only flaw for retroshare was that there hadn't been a recent code audit. @Troglodactyl, do you know if there is a plan for an independent review of the code in the near future?
I can ask, but I don't know of any immediate plans for audits. The software is usable, and is very likely pretty secure, but I think it should still be considered open beta, so probably best not use it for any secrets that would get people killed if they got out just yet. If we can get over the "not developed here" factor, I think it would be wise to support development of this project just as we would support Keyhotee were it still on the table. Our current developers just don't have the bandwidth to build a competing communication and social platform with everything else on their plates, and RetroShare has several
very dedicated developers who have been working on it for long time. With our encouragement and resources, I think we can get security audits and BitShares integration plugins done once our community wants them.
