Comment on TrueCrypt, the final release, archive

Comments

Note to the devs:

Thank you for your hard and unappreciated work for the last 10 years.

But if you're no longer interested in continuing to devleop TrueCrypt, could you please replace the license on 7.1a with one of the OSI-approved, DFSG-compatible licenses so that other people can keep developing and using TrueCrypt if they want to? I know that you think it's risky to keep using TrueCrypt, but there seem to be plenty of people who are willing to fork over tens of thousands of dollars to discover and fix any security issues.

An email sent to the auditing team and/or a message published on the official website, signed with your usual keys, should suffice.
