[cks-devl] Re: keyserver CKS

[V. Alex Brennen]

Hi Stephan,

If you help me translate CKS and the website to German, I will
release a version which supports German as soon as the translation
is completed.  I am very happy to support foreign languages.

I had not heard of winpt before.  But, I have found it and 
downloaded the source code of winpt.  I will try and fix the
problems you have brought to my attention.

I hope to release a much improved version of CKS next week 
which support email sync and other new features.

Thanks, 

        - VAB
