<div dir="ltr">In all honesty and with respect to this project and it's contributors. This mailinglist doesn't seem the right place to develop *another* password manager. I do see reasons to announce/mention/compare other projects since that would be relevant to some extent. But as I see it that's fulfilled now and if people are still interested in this project you are free to create a communication channel for this project for which there are a lot of alternatives (since you're on github I can recommend the github issue tracker and PR system). Please do announce this so people can follow if they want to.<div><br></div><div>I'm not maintaining this mailing list and I am in no position to tell anyone what to post or what not. I am just a user who cares about the discussion on this list and this doesn't seem like the right place to me. I hope I'm not offending anyone as that is not my intention at all. Also, if the majority(?) disagrees please disregard my comment and continue.</div><div><br></div><div>Best regards and good luck!</div><div><br></div><div>-- </div><div>Timmo</div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Mon, Feb 1, 2016 at 11:34 AM Dashamir Hoxha <<a href="mailto:dashohoxha@gmail.com">dashohoxha@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Jan 29, 2016 at 5:11 PM, Kevin Lyda <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:kevin@ie.suberic.net" target="_blank">kevin@ie.suberic.net</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_quote"><span><div dir="ltr">On Fri, Jan 29, 2016 at 3:16 PM Dashamir Hoxha <<a href="mailto:dashohoxha@gmail.com" target="_blank">dashohoxha@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div></span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_quote"><span>On Fri, Jan 29, 2016 at 11:16 AM, Kevin Lyda <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:kevin@ie.suberic.net" target="_blank">kevin@ie.suberic.net</a>></span> wrote:<br></span><span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_quote"><span><div dir="ltr">I have no idea why you want to do this since your shell already has completion.
