About a week ago, I had the pleasure to have a discussion on IRC [1] with a user of gputty [2]. In fact, this person had translated my project page into German and placed it on a domain of its own, gputty.de [3]!

Even though I'm not actively working on this project anymore, I was really pleased to see that is has some kind of community, with people spontaneously working on it. Therefore, I have created a project for gputty on Sourceforge [4], where hopefully more people will volunteer for this project!

Just create yourself a Sourceforge account and tell me [1] if you want access to the project. I'll happily let you contribute :)

I have already moved the project page and downloadable files to Sourceforge, and I have every intention to move its upstream source code repository over there as well. I suppose it'll be using the default SVN source code management platform in place [5].

To conclude, I'll let you know my current plan about gputty:
  • release 1.0.0 mostly as-is, to mark this event;
  • plan 2.0.0 to be using OpenSSH' own configuration files: ~/.ssh/config instead of the INI-style parser from DeforaOS.
I didn't really look for it, but I don't know any other tools doing it. Could be neat.
