Comment 8 for bug 140406

  Hello!
  Please excuse me for interrupting a constructive conversation, but are you talking about using GPG to have encrypted chats with one's contacts? (Just like Psi, Gajim, Kopete, and probably some other clients do?).
  If this is what you are talking about, than it's a really really useful feature! :) I wanted to suggest such feature by myself, but then I have seen this bug (or feature request) discussion. If somebody implements it, I think I'll be one of the first users to test it and report if something goes wrong.
  By the way, it seems not to be very difficult to make it possible to have the encrypted group chats if there is a possibility to have private chats. For example, I have a pair of keys (public and private), and my friends have these keys either. In such case I can send a message encrypted with a public key to any one (or as many as I wish) of them and they can decrypt my message using our private key. So personally I do not see much difference between encrypting private and group chats.

  I hope this feature will be implemented soon and I believe other users also do. And looking forward to test it! :)

  Regards,
  Vladimir.
