38 Hi Max,
39
40 Trystero??? "The crying of lot 49"?...and from this source a hint
41 what secured messenger to use....WHAT A COINCIDENCE!!! ;)))
42
43 Currently I am fiting against/with layman ... I had found kadu in
44 the meantime but portage only has an older version available...
45 See previous posting from me...
46
47 I have to confess that I am at the very beginning of understanding all
48 this IM/IRC things and the OTR/SSL/TLS stuff. And a working client
49 would be a great step for me (in opposite to Neil Amstrong...).
50
51 First I have to get a working layman...:)
52
53 Best regards,
54 Meino
