Hi! This mail is to announce the new Alioth project 'cryptofs' where people interested in encrypted file systems and swap space on Debian systems can collaborate and discuss. Some ideas:
* Making the use of encrypted file systems on Debian "easy" by working on the integration, writing support scripts and ideally good documentation for the user. * Adding support for encrypted file systems to debian-installer. This could be done as partman module 'partman-cryptofs' for creating encrypted partitions and swap space (30% done) * Trying to get changes integrated upstream wherever possible and working with other Debian maintainers to resolve the few outstanding issues with encrypted file systems. * Discussing implementation details The Alioth project page: http://alioth.debian.org/projects/cryptofs/ There is a mailinglist 'cryptofs-devel' (@lists.alioth.debian.org) for support and general discussion to which you can subscribe here: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/cryptofs-devel My work will mainly focus on the loop-AES encrypted loopback driver, but I hope people using the kerneli.org cryptoloop will join and contribute too.
