Diesen Artikel gibt es auch in Englisch. Was ist Conversations? Conversations ist eine App für Android Smartphones, mit der man sich gegenseitig Nachrichten, Bilder, etc schicken kann, sehr ähnlich wie WhatsApp. Es gibt allerdings ein paar wichtige ... [More] Unterschiede zu WhatsApp: Conversations verwendet nicht Deine Telefon-Nummer zur Identifikation, und nicht Dein Adressbuch um Kontakte zu finden. Deine ID sieht aus wie eine Email-Adresse (Deine sogenannte Jabber-ID), und Kontakte findest Du indem Du Deine Jabber-ID mit Bekannten austauschst, genau wie bei Email-Adressen oder Telefonnummern auch. Conversations benutzt ein offenes Protokoll, genannt XMPP, das von vielen anderen Programmen auf vielen verschiedenen Systemen genutzt werden kann, z.B. auch auf Desktop PCs. Conversations ist Open Source, d.h. jeder kann den Quellcode einsehen, und z.B. auf Sicherheitsprobleme überprüfen, oder sich vergewissern was das Programm eigentlich macht, oder es ändern, etc. XMPP baut auf eine dezentrale Infrastruktur, das bedeutet daß nicht ein Unternehmen alles kontrolliert, sondern daß es viele verschiedene Anbieter gibt, oder man z.B. selbst entsprechende Server betreiben kann, wenn man möchte. Conversations sammelt und verkauft keinerlei Informationen über Dich und Deine Kontakte. Es gibt noch einige andere Unterschiede, aber ich will hier nicht im Detail darauf eingehen, das haben andere schon viel besser getan. Conversations installieren Von Google Play Conversations lässt sich ganz einfach von Google Play installieren. Es kostet dort allerdings momentan 2,39€. Ich möchte allen, die die Möglichkeit haben empfehlen, die App zu kaufen, ihr unterstützt damit die Entwicklung dieser wirklich guten App. Alternative: Von F-Droid Allen, die Google Play nicht nutzen können, oder die aus welchen Gründen auch immer nicht 2,39€ dafür zahlen können oder möchten, sei die Installation über F-Droid ans Herz gelegt. F-Droid ist ein alternativer App Store, der aussschliesslich Open Source Software bereitstellt. Dazu muss man sich zunächst F-Droid installieren. Dann kann man in der F-Droid App nach ‘Conversations’ suchen, und dort installieren. Das ist kostenlos und legal. Jabber-Account einrichten Als nächstes musst Du einen Jabber Account einrichten. Dazu benötigst Du zwei Dinge: eine ID, und einen Anbieter. Den ersten Teil, die ID, kannst Du selbst wählen, z.B. einen Phantasienamen, oder etwas wie vorname.nachname, aber das ist wirklich Dir überlassen. Um einen Anbieter zu finden, empfehle ich diese Liste: https://gultsch.de/compliance_ranked.html. Die Anbieter ganz oben unterstützen die meisten Features die für Smartphone-Nutzer wichtig sind. Ich kann trashserver.net empfehlen, da dieser Server die Registrierung direkt aus der Conversations-App heraus unterstützt, und auch sonst sehr gut gewartet wird. Wenn Du dem Entwickler von Conversations zusätzlich Unterstützung zukommen lassen möchtest, dann ist ein Account auf conversations.im empfehlenswert, dies kostet aber momentan 8 Euro im Jahr. Ich finde, das ist es wert, aber das muss jeder selbst entscheiden. Wenn Du z.B. die ID ‘max.mustermann’ auf dem Anbieter ‘anbieter.de’ aussuchst, ist Deine Jabber-ID: [email protected] . Wenn Du Dich für eine ID und einen Anbieter entschieden hast, dann kannst Du ganz einfach einen Account einrichten, indem Du Conversations startest und im Einrichtungs-Bildschirm die gewünschte Jabber-ID eingibst, das Häkchen bei ‘Neues Konto auf Server erstellen’ aktivierst, Dein gewünschtest Passwort 2x eingibst und dann auf ‘Weiter’ tippst. Kontakte hinzufügen Anders als in WhatsApp musst Du in Conversations Deine Kontakte selbst hinzufügen. Dazu einfach auf das Symbol mit dem ‘+’ neben Männchen tippen, die Jabber-ID des Kontaktes eingeben, fertig. Und dann kannst Du loschatten! Viel Spaß! [Less]

We are pleased to announce the release of IcedTea 3.3.0! The IcedTea project provides a harness to build the source code from OpenJDK using Free Software build tools, along with additional features such as the ability to build against system ... [More] libraries and support for alternative virtual machines and architectures beyond those supported by OpenJDK. This release updates our OpenJDK 8 support with the October 2016 bug fixes from OpenJDK 8 u112 and the January 2017 security fixes from OpenJDK 8 u121. The ‘infinality’ feature has been improved and is now known as ‘improved font rendering’. It no longer requires a patched FreeType and we intend to enable it by default from IcedTea 3.4.0 onwards. We also make the build a little easier on some platforms by removing the requirement for wget to be installed if downloading is disabled, and supporting older Kerberos installations which don’t use pkg-config. We also add support for picking up the strangely named JVM installation locations on RHEL 6 multilib platforms. If you find an issue with the release, please report it to our bug database under the appropriate component. Development discussion takes place on the distro-pkg-dev OpenJDK mailing list and patches are always welcome. Full details of the release can be found below.

The IcedTea project provides a harness to build the source code from OpenJDK using Free Software build tools, along with additional features such as a PulseAudio sound driver, the ability to build against system libraries and support for alternative ... [More] virtual machines and architectures beyond those supported by OpenJDK. This release updates our OpenJDK 6 support in the 1.13.x series with the October 2016 security fixes from OpenJDK 6 b41. This is the final security update to IcedTea 1.x. Users should upgrade to IcedTea 2.x for OpenJDK 7 or 3.x for OpenJDK 8. See the earlier post on this for further details. If you find an issue with the release, please report it to our bug database under the appropriate component. Development discussion takes place on the distro-pkg-dev OpenJDK mailing list and patches are always welcome. There will be a final 1.14.0 release at some point and this can include fixes for any issues with this release. However, it will not include any further security backports. Full details of the release can be found below. What’s New?

Following the proposed end-of-life of OpenJDK 6 upstream, we will be concluding support for the IcedTea 1.x series with the following upcoming releases: 1.13.13, containing the October 2016 security updates in the upcoming OpenJDK 6 b41 release. ... [More] 1.14.0, based on the same b41 release but containing the changes from IcedTea 1.x HEAD which were thought too disruptive for the stable branch release. The remaining proposed changes for 1.14.0 will be reviewed and the more extensive tasks dropped, given the upcoming discontinuation of this major release series. We have no plans to produce backports of the security updates for January 2017 and beyond, either upstream in OpenJDK 6 or in IcedTea 1.x. Others are, of course, welcome to take over maintainership of IcedTea 1.x if they wish to do so. Many thanks for your support over the years. [Less]
