It's been another release day in our little team. Today we released CryptPad v1.7.0 (Hodag). The biggest new feature in this version is that when you create a /code/ pad, the default highlighting is in markdown syntax and there it is rendered in realtime while you type.
It's been two and a half years since the first commit to CryptPad, we no longer have the hideous white and green color-scheme and we're on our third URL format.
CryptPad started as a novel idea: provide a means for people to collaborate on the web, without their data being exposed to the server that connects them
We have gotten a lot of questions about the concept of Zero Knowledge, the vision and ethics as well as the exact meaning.
Update: The issue mentioned in this blog post was assigned CVE-2017-1000051 by Distributed Weakness Filing, thanks Martin Gubri for applying for the number.
