Subject: Johnny the GUI fro John the Ripper, Release 1 announce

I am honored to introduce the first release of Johnny the GUI for John
the Ripper.

The first release is prepared to take more opinions from real users. This
release includes all things from development release plus nice tabbed panel
for mode selection and some additional clean-ups. Basic functionality is
supposed to work: password could be loaded from file and cracked with
different options.

Johnny is the GUI for John the Ripper. It is a separate program. You need to
have John the Ripper to use Johnny.

You could find more info about releases and Johnny on the wiki:

  http://openwall.info/wiki/john/johnny#Release-1

You could download and unpack tarball from the wiki

  http://openwall.info/wiki/_media/john/johnny_release1.tar.gz?id=john%3Ajohnny&cache=cache

or use git:

  git clone https://github.com/AlekseyCherepanov/johnny.git -b release1

Then build and run (no installation required):

  cd johnny
  qmake
  make && ./johnny

On some systems (like Debian) build requirements could be installed through
qt-sdk package. More info about building you could find in the README file.

What do you think? Any questions? Your opinion is very welcome!

Your review could affect decisions about upcoming Google Summer of Code (GSoC)
2012. Please tell us your suggestions!
