Ideas and proposals

Something missing? Something wasting your time? Say so. That is how the program gets better.

What you can propose

New features: Something CryptoUpload does not do today and that you would need.
Awkward things: One step too many, a message that makes no sense, a window that confuses.
Translations and wording: A mistake, an unclear sentence, a missing language.
More cloud storage: A provider you would like to see supported.
Where to write: The public page for proposals opens together with the first public release.

Why in private: Proposals are public: anyone can read them. A flaw described in public before it is fixed is an invitation to whoever wants to exploit it, and the people using the program would pay for it.
What counts: Anything that could let someone read, alter or lose data, steal a key or a password, or get around a protection. When in doubt, treat it as a security problem.
Where to write: To security@cryptoupload.org, and only there. You get an acknowledgement within 5 working days.

One proposal at a time: Ten ideas in one message get lost. One at a time gets discussed.
Describe the problem: What you were trying to do and what made it hard is worth more than a ready-made solution.
Check whether it exists: If someone has already proposed it, add your vote or your case there instead of opening another.

Every one is read: Behind CryptoUpload there is one person, in their spare time. Every proposal is read, but there are no guaranteed timings and not everything will be done.
Everything stays visible: Proposals and replies stay public, including the ones where the answer is no.
Want to write code?: The source is public under the GPLv3: you can propose a change directly.
