Presented at
Notacon 2 (2005),
April 10, 2005, 10 a.m.
(60 minutes)
One year ago, at the first Notacon, the Cutlass project was born as a cooperative effort (under a different name, but it was born here). Since then, our baby's grown. We've got functional software that encrypts file transfers, voice, and text messaging, all in a P2P framework. We've presented at ToorCon and ShmooCon, and had great reactions at each.
We're not done yet. We're looking for additional developers, testers, and people with ideas. If you're interested in joining the Cutlass project, or just want to see a demo of a cool open-source encrypted VoIP P2P tool, come on by to the talk. We'll talk about project goals, protocol design, code architecture, and demo the existing tool.
