News Flashes
A new GnuPG website in German has recently been lauchend.
A patch has been released to address a security problem related to detached signatures in all versions of GnuPG.

GnuPG is a RFC2440 (OpenPGP) compliant application.The German Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology granted funds for the further development of GnuPG. See our press notice for details.
Status
Version 1.0.0 has been released on September 7th, 1999. The current stable version is 1.0.4.Please read about the backend and see the documentation pages for more information on GnuPG.
