I have just released Herbrip version 0.2.0. Herbrip is part of
my Herbivore initiative to encourage more people to use
encrypted email. The Herbivore/Herbrip system is similar in
concept to GnupG/PGP, but designed to be effortless in use.
Herbrip is a command-line implementation of the Herbivore
protocol; the name stands for "Herbivore Reference Implementation
in Python".
In the future, I plan to extend Herbrip's functionality
and integrate it into one or more open source email clients.
Version 0.2.0 adds the functionality of encrypting the "Subject:"
line of the email header, and some other headers that are really
part of the message. Also, I have improved my Mail classes, which
add to the functionality of the rfc822 classes in the Python
standard library.
Herbrip is available from:
<http://www.vision25.demon.co.uk/oss/herbivore/herbrip.html>
The Herbivore home page is at:

Herbrip is licenced under the GNU GPL.
