Version 0.9.9 of the Signet client has been released. It features importers for pass password databases and CSV files. The CSV import feature can be used to import data into any data type, making it possible to import from a variety of sources that support CSV export.

Account grouping

You can now categorize accounts into groups for organizational purposes. This allows Signet to preserve KeePass’s and Pass’s database’s tree structures. If you imported from a KeePass database using version 0.9.8.1 you may need to take some additional steps to recover the tree structure of imported accounts. Check the release notes for details.

Software Development Timeline

The software development timeline I posted in December of last year has slipped a bit, mostly due to bug fixing and handling some small but important feature requests. Here is an updated timeline:

February goals:

• Initial command line interface release.
• Start of Android work.

March goals:

• Complete Android client.
• User-defined data types.
• Ability to use a database backup without a device:

(Github issue #8).

• Ability to type a small set of passwords before authenticating:

(Github Issue #22).

Mailing List

In case you missed the last update, I’ve started a Signet mailing list which has seen some usage already. You can learn more about it here.
