Hello,

We are pleased to announce the release of GPA 0.8.0.

GPA is a graphical frontend for the GNU Privacy Guard (GnuPG,
http://www.gnupg.org). GPA can be used to encrypt, decrypt, and sign
files, to verify signatures and to manage the private and public keys.

This is a development release. Please be careful when using it on
production keys.

You can find the release here:

There is no patch to the previous release, as this would almost be as
big as the whole package.

The SHA1 checksums for this release are:

c519af3ccd3c7e518458e143b2001a8cc6d90467  gpa-0.8.0.tar.bz2
661e971022c12201af2b36488f36fecf6382840a  gpa-0.8.0.tar.bz2.sig

Noteworthy changes in version 0.8.0 (2008-09-04)
------------------------------------------------

 * Add basic UI server mode and option --daemon.

 * GPA now supports direct crypto operations to and from the
   clipboard, and features a simple text edit area as well.

 * GPA supports manipulating the backend configuration through
   gpg-conf.

 * GPA has now basic support for X.509; use the command line switch
   --cms to enable this.

 * The default keyserver is now taken from gpg.conf and not from
   gpa.conf.


Thanks,
Marcus
