I am very happy to announce the availability of Enigmail v1.5. It is
precisely a year ago that I announced that I would work on replacing
the binary components that depend on Thunderbird with JavaScript code
[1]. Today is the moment when the last part of this project is
completed and Enigmail is released with (almost) no binary code anymore.


Notable Changes
===============

* PGP/MIME encryption & signing have been rewritten from scratch in
JavaScript.

* Core parts of inline-PGP (creation, decryption and verification) have
been rewritten in JavaScript.

* Due to the new code structure, this version of Enigmail is
compatible with all future versions of Thunderbird and SeaMonkey.
There is a small C++ component remaining for Thunderbird 17 and 18 and
SeaMonkey 2.14 and 2.15. As of Thunderbird 19 and SeaMonkey 2.16 there
won't be any Mozilla version-specific code in Enigmail.


Obtaining Enigmail
==================
Enigmail can be downloaded from
<http://www.enigmail.net/download/index.php>
The changelog is available from
<http://www.enigmail.net/download/changelog.php>



Given that the next major version for Thunderbird will be 24 (i.e.
Thunderbird 18-23 will only be available as Beta versions), I'm
planning to maintain Enigmail such that the latest published versions
of SeaMonkey and Thunderbird are supported.
