But first we'll need to find developers who are willing to take up the task. Is there anyone interested in implementing this (immensely important, believe me!) feature? Can we spur his or her interest with money? Or can we say that allowing this functionality to exist in one closed-source vendor's application alone is tantamount to having your passports checked at the border by a representative of a commercial enterprise, who does not tell you by what criteria it checks the document, bit still is entitled to deny you admission? We did a fundraiser (<a href="http://wilhelmtux.ch/?MID=11&PID=96">http://wilhelmtux.ch/?MID=11&PID=96</a>) recently for finishing the implementation of the *signing* part in LibreOffice, which is also in C++ and uses Mozilla NSS. So maybe some of the code can be reused. Most of the original code should be available here: <a href="http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=9c8dc01d3a40ec905c9d816c733ceb5d621e0426">http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=9c8dc01d3a40ec905c9d816c733ceb5d621e0426</a> Search by author should also work: <a href="http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/log/?qt=author&q=eraslan">http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/log/?qt=author&q=eraslan</a> As this is still work in progress, please follow <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_NEW " title="NEW - Meta: PDF signatures (tracker)" href="show_bug.cgi?id=83940">https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=83940</a> for updates.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
