Yes, I didn't have time to update, but, for example, if you are interested in encryption is update.

What I'm interested in is what this application is doing exactly: you can understand that if I choose to store private data using Wallet, I want to be sure that it doesnot do anything that could be harmful.

As the installed version on my N900 is 1.4.9 and this version is licensed under GPL3, I expected that the sources would be available for this specific version.

Do you plan to update the repository, or make a tarball available, any time soon ?

I will upgrade, otherwise if you don't trust on this version, you can buy ovi store version, that has been tested by Nokia team.

No offense, but do you advise me to go for a closed source version of your software (at least, I guess it is closed source, since it is on OVI store) when I ask to check the sources by myself ?

The kind of software you developed is exactly why I love open source: not that I am a expert in programming, but at least I can read code and see what is done and how, when sensitive data are involved.

By the way, I really don't understand why you put this enhanced version of your software on OVI. Would'nt it be more consistent to ask for donations and keep your work open ?

Well donation vs ovi store, this is good point, try to develop an application like wallet, an only gets 7 donations in 1 year. Very frustrating.

If you develop Wallet as part of your job, then I can understand your choice: open source users are unfortunately seldom generous.

Are you going to maintain both versions of Wallet or 1.4.9 is going to be the last one under GPL3 ?

It will be the last if no defects found. Although both uses same code.

I've enabled both the extras-testing and extras-devel repos but cannot find wallet in the application manager nor by trying to "apt-get install wallet", am I doing something wrong? Thank you.
