This is the source repository from which the https://autocrypt.org website and Autocrypt specifications are generated.

The Autocrypt Level 1 spec was created in 2019 and subsequently implemented in various MUAs and enjoys wide active use.

The following was agreed during the OpenPGP Summit in June 2024 by rough consensus:

• For 2024/2025 multiple parties in the OpenPGP space are interested to evolve the Autocrypt spec towards a Level 2 version.
• We close all historic issues and PRs (they remain accessible in the search).
• We implement a strict new issue/PR-creation policy (see below).

As of June 2024, there is only a loose set of people paying attention and caring for the Autocrypt repository. Therefore, this respository does not invite feature suggestions or bug reports and roughly has the following issue and PR creation policy:

Both Issues and PRs should typically only be opened if two parties agree on it before-hand and assign themselves which indicates they are committing to caring for resolving/merging.

You are however always warmly welcome to submit PRs to update the website, documentation and development-status pages, as well as the continous-integration machinery.

If you want to read and work on the docs locally checkout the doc directory which contains a sphinx documentation project. You can install sphinx and then run make html in the doc directory to regenerate docs locally.
