Cwtch 1.13 is now available for download!

Cwtch is a communication application (and associated libraries) that uses Tor v3 Onion Services to establish surveillance resistant channels between people. Cwtch has been designed to be secure, private, and resilient.

Cwtch 1.13 is the culmination of the last few years of effort by the Cwtch team, and is the first release that meets our bar to be labelled a Cwtch Stable candidate.

While much more work remains, we are now very confident in the state of the Cwtch library, and the Cwtch UI. We are prepared to make certain commitments regarding peer-to-peer messaging, the UI, and experimental interfaces. In this post we will chart the journey that got us to this point, highlight what is in this new release, and talk about our next steps.

The next large step for the Cwtch project to take is a move from public Beta to Stable – marking a point at which we consider Cwtch to be secure and usable. We have been working hard towards that goal over the last year.

Today, as we approach the release of Cwtch Stable we would like to provide another update on the ongoing work, and the remaining blockers to certifying a Cwtch Stable release. We also have a new nightly to test out!

There is a new Nightly build are available from our build server. The latest nightly we recommend testing is 2023-08-22-23-27-v1.12.0-25-ge019f.

This nightly contains a first cut of support for Whonix, a new global setting for managing how conversation history is preserved, in addition to several bug fixes reported in the last nightly.

This nightly contains a first cut of Conversation Search, in addition to several bug fixes impacting effectiveness of the contact retry plugin when combined with a large contact list, and an unstable network connection. Finally we have made a few tweaks to the font scaling based on feedback.

Da wir immer näher an einen Cwtch Stable Kandidaten herankommen, möchten wir diese Gelegenheit nutzen, um sicherzustellen, dass diejenigen, die im Laufe der Jahre an Cwtch mitgewirkt haben, die Möglichkeit haben, die Anerkennung zu erhalten.

Wenn du in irgendeiner Weise am Entwicklungsprozess teilgenommen hast, z.B. beim Protokoll-Design, Code-Design, UI-Design, das Schreiben von Tests, Tests von Release-Kandidaten, Berichtsprobleme, Übersetzung der Anwendung oder der Dokumentation, die Förderung von metadatenresistenten Anwendungen oder irgendwelchen anderen sinnvollen Beitrag zum Cwtch-Ökosystem, dann möchten wir dir die Möglichkeit bieten, deinen Namen oder dein Handle sowohl im Quellcode-Repository als auch in der Anwendung selbst zu haben.

Earlier this year we talked about the changes we have made to make Cwtch Bindings Reproducible.

In this devlog we will talk about how the Cwtch UI are currently built, the changes we have made to Cwtch UI to make future distributions verifiable, and the next steps we will be taking to make all Cwtch builds reproducible.

This will be useful to anyone who is looking to reproduce Cwtch UI builds specifically, and to anyone who wants to start implementing reproducible builds in their own project.

The next large step for the Cwtch project to take is a move from public Beta to Stable – marking a point at which we consider Cwtch to be secure and usable. We have been working hard towards that goal over the last few months.

This post revisits the Cwtch Stable roadmap update we provided back in March, and provides an overview of the next steps on our journey towards Cwtch Stable.
