This is the first usable release of our new messaging framework: AMA Messaging Architecture. It may not be big and professional like Kafka, but it sure is a hell of a lot easier to get up and running; certainly based on my own experience in my day job!
It’s been a long time coming, but we’ve finally simplified our site and moved everything to Github. Student life with its ample free time is a distant memory these days and keeping up with the changes in PHP to ensure our site runs well is less of a priority. And using Jekyll on top of Github Pages is more than capable of hosting (mostly) static pages, as well as providing a bug tracker.
It’s not been quite as long between updates this time around, but Google kind of forced our hand by threatening to close our developer account due to lack of use. So here we are with a few minor bug fixes and maybe a dependency update or two.
Biennially seems to be how we release recently, if you can call the last 8 or 9 years recent! Again, there aren’t too many on the surface changes, but there are a handful of bug fixes and improvements in reliability—especially on Android.
Well, it’s been another 2 years but we’re back with another release of encrypt! On the face of it, it would appear that very little has changed but there has been significant changes under the covers, a lot of which should help with error reporting and debugging (if you’re unlucky enough to need it).
It may be long overdue, but finally, after over two years (although a day early if you check the release notes), we are back with another release of our flagship product encrypt. The big ticket item this time around is configurable KDF iterations.
It’s been nearly a year, and during that time there has been numerous updates to the FUSE library, one of which started causing problems with stegfs. We’ve been able to quickly push out a fix, and hopefully this will give the motivation to resume working on stegfs instead of neglecting it. As there are no new features or changes to the file system layout there shouldn’t be any issues with…
Okay, so here we are, back again (finally) with a completely new stegfs! And when we say new, we mean totally rewritten! It’s much better at not overwriting your existing files (although it can and will still happen) and it’s a lot more customisable.
