Changes in website texts

by Enrico Bella

Hello, I've noticed that you changed the website text many times in the last weeks, also for little changes. Please keep in mind that any little change in the text will mark the string as new and it will become untranslated. The translators have to re-translated each string every time, otherwise it will be shown in english. eg. The sentence "See https://countermitm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/new.htmlfor the R&D behind this feature." has been changed to "See [countermitm.readthedocs.io](https://countermitm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/new.html)for the R&D behind this feature.". This is part of a bigger text so the translator have to read all the text to find where the difference are (easy in this example, but not in others). The most critical thing IMHO is that the whole string will be shown as unstranslated (again) and all the translators in all languages have to re-translate it. Yes, we can copy the previous sentence and modify it, but we can't know where the differences are so we have to read all the text carefully. I'm not saying that the changes are not useful, but please keep in mind this Transifex behaviour, the additional work for the translators and the untraslated string that will be shown in all the localized website pages until the new translation. I kindly ask you to try to upload the most definitive version possible for each string :-) Thanks a lot, Enrico

Delta Chat December 2019: Rust-core ready, new major Android and iOS/Desktop releases

by holger krekel

Here are some key points from Delta Chat in december 2019 -- this is the compilation we sent to the "OpenTechFund active projects" (https://www.opentech.fund/results/supported-projects/ ) and our project managers there: - A major new Delta/Android 1.0 Google Play Store release with lots of nice features, and a brand new 100% safe rust-core, see https://delta.chat/en/2019-12-18-google-play-store-release The new Android play store version also features a new video in the app store description: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=chat.delta - In terms of improved onboarding and provider-support the current releases are probably the best so far. We are up to do some final bits on better onboarding and provider-specific settings, along with an in-app FAQ facility early 2020. The Delta Chat FAQ https://delta.chat/en/help has been refined and more questions are addressed now. After these changes are in we are to remove the Beta-tag from the Android appstore, finally! - Our move-to-Rust is already complete now! Overall 800 PRs have been merged since the port from C started around May/June 2019. See https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-core-rust/ Originally our OTF proposal projected 12 months but we accellerated it (~5-6 months) because it majorly simplified release packaging on all platforms, and generally avoids development overheads from "half-porting". The last big chunk of work was replacing the mail mime-parser with a full-rust version. The new rust cores involves not only a radical modernisation of MIME-parsing but also of SMTP and IMAP stacks, which are published and maintained here: https://github.com/async-email TLS, SMTP and IMAP are btw offered in "async-rust" manner which was released as stable a few weeks ago. The new async-email rust work is starting already to get contributions from the wider Rust community. We also setup a new 6-CPU/64GB RAM build server to speed up PR merging and testing. Rust-compilation is resource-intensive but all users get an efficient non-interpreted resource-saving core lib this way :) - New Desktop (Windows, Linux, Mac) and Apple iOS Testflight releases, all using the new Rust-core. The only missing bit is now a new f-droid release which unfortunately requires considerable custom work with long feedback loops. If someone here can help us doing the last mile and get an f-droid release out, that'd be marvellous! See https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-android/issues/1177 - We got into fruitful conversations with people reporting about or involved in protests in several Asian and Eastern European cities, about using Delta Chat during internet shutdowns. As of today, Delta Chat can often be used even if a country-internet shutdown is happening. Local e-mail providers typically remain available and that is all that Delta Chat needs to establish e2e-encrypted communication in Whatsapp/Telegram UX style. - During the 36c3 congress we organized the !decentral assembly which also involved people from DAT, Activity Pub and other projects. We did several onboarding sessions and there was one recorded talk about Delta Chat: https://media.ccc.de/v/36c3-oio-154-delta-chat-e-mail-based-messaging-the-r… During 36c3, there were almost a dozen DC contributors and an incredible multitude of conversations and new contacts, much to be followed up upon in 2020. - We merged a number of PRs that reduce network data usage, a concern in several lower-resourced regions. We have identified a number of further improvements and started measuring IMAP operations which produce the bulk of traffic. - The new Rust-core uses an improved version of rPGP, the full-rust OpenPGP implementation. The OTF-financed first independent security review found several non-urgent flaws that have, however, now been fully addressed. DC's full-rust e2e-encryption engine can now be considered a pretty good base. A second security review is starting soon which more focuses on Delta Chat core itself (this review timing was another reason we accelerated our Rust-work). cheers, holger

Wrong sentence?

by Enrico Bella

Hello, could you please check the sentence between the ***? I think that someting is missing but I'm not so expert in English so I could be wrong. https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-pages/blob/master/en/help.md Note that if anyone has seized or hacked your running phone, they will typically be able to read all messages, no matter if Perfect Forward Secrecy is in place or not. *** Having access to a single device from a member of a group, will typically a lot of the social graph. *** Thanks, Enrico

OAUTH/Google

by Marco Vittorini Orgeas

Hi, excluding the gmail domain from the user pool has been unfortunately a big blow to delta, and yes good luck explaining to the average user that the option "Allow insecure apps to connect...", *when* and *if* finally they have found it, doesn't mean that their accounts are less secure because they should have hard passwords anyway. So, is there any update about the oauth google approval process for delta ? -- Marco
