I read this on reddit, I wasn't even aware of his research, what he found. I found it to be also truly inspiring: "A great man has passed. Alas, Ralph Steinman is dead. He died three days before he got the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Med

Would it be possible to add XMPP support ? Then the service could check my XMPP status and postpone notifications if i'm away, busy, offline... I tend to prefer IM for this kind of things as it doesn't clutter my mailbox.

Now, I got it, You have to mount both the hidden volume and the first level volume to safely write to the first level. Great.

So, if my volume size is 100G on a 200G drive, I have 80G of data, If I write another byte, how Truecrypt knows it won't overwrite one byte of the hidden volume ?

As an android user (I previously owned an iPhone 3G) I don't feel especially safe either. I'm kind of worried by the current status of mobile securiy. I kind of need to log on my bank account on my phone (That's why I own a 'smart' phone a
