[Bitcoin-development] Bitcoin Wallet for Android
Hey, I just saw this added to the clients page. One of the conditions we set for that page was that all the clients must have the entire sourcecode available for review, and users should be able to run it from the sourcecode. Is the sourcecode for this client available for review? I couldn't find it. Otherwise, we should make a separate section for non-opensource clients. -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond. Discussions will include endpoint security, mobile security and the latest in malware threats. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfrnl04242012/114/50122263/ ___ Bitcoin-development mailing list Bitcoin-development@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bitcoin-development

Re: [Bitcoin-development] Bitcoin Wallet for Android
OK thanks. I just went and made those sections then saw your posts. Anyway we have a section for proprietary clients now. Please tell me if anything looks disagreeable, http://bitcoin.org/clients.html One thing I'm going to do is randomise the positioning order within sections upon refresh. - Original Message - From: m...@henricson.se m...@henricson.se To: bitcoin-development@lists.sourceforge.net Cc: Sent: Monday, July 9, 2012 11:19 AM Subject: Re: [Bitcoin-development] Bitcoin Wallet for Android Sources are available here: http://code.google.com/p/bitcoin-wallet/ Mats Quoting Amir Taaki zgen...@yahoo.com: Hey, I just saw this added to the clients page.

After all, you can't know what they do. What if one of them contains a back door or something? I would say it's better not risk to apologize later. I agree too. Not that being open is _any_ guarantee, ideally we'd want standards of review and testing, but thats a bit much to ask for right now. -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

I removed the proprietary software section the plug for the blockchain.info webservices, and the demotion of the armory client. As far as criteria goes, I don't think we should list anything with a security model weaker than SPV unless users can practically operate their own servers. …and even that I'm a little uneasy with, because most people will use the defaults. Ideally even thin clients would have a near SPV security model, just without the bandwidth. But since the alternative for thin clients is centralized web services the lower standard will probably have better net results for now. Nor do I think we should list anything which can't currently be subjected to independent review of the whole stack (e.g. including the server components in thinclients, unless the server is untrusted). In the future this should be raised to there existing actual evidence of third party review. -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

Re: [Bitcoin-development] Bitcoin Wallet for Android
Any chance the blockchain.info iphone app could be included on the clients page? The source is available under an lGPL license: https://github.com/blockchain/My-Wallet-iPhone. More info:https://blockchain.info/wallet/iphone-app Also the javascript web front end can be reviewed using a combination of https://github.com/blockchain/My-Wallet and https://github.com/blockchain/My-Wallet-Integrity-Checker but I could see why that might be more of an issue for the the official site.
