gnoMint 0.1.5 released

I'm pleased to announce the 0.1.5 version of gnoMint: a graphical
Certification Authority managing tool.

This version add some useful features to 0.1.4 version:
      * gnoMint can import the public part of Certificate Signing
        Requests made by other applications as long as they are
        formatted in PEM or in DER formats. This way, gnoMint now is
        able to make certificates for remote people or systems that can
        create their CSRs with other instances of gnoMint or other
        software.
      * gnoMint DB format version 3. This version of database format
        ensures that there won't be two or more CSRs in the database
        with the same Distinguished Name (DN).

It also fixes some nasty bugs:
      * Now the private key of CSRs can be exported without errors.
      * A just created CA has a default policy so it will be able to
        create useful certificates without change its default
        properties.
      * Some UI bugs are corrected: some label alignments now look OK,
        and the progress bar again moves while creating certificates or
        CSRs.

It must be noted that all the databases created prior to 0.1.4 version
must be converted to the new format (0.1.4 or higher). The conversion
script gnomint-upgrade-db is included in the package.

About gnoMint:
==============

gnoMint is a tool for an easy creation and management of Certification
Authorities. It allows a fancy visualization of all the pieces that
conform a CA: x509 certificates, CSRs, CRLs...

Currently, it allows the creation of CAs, CSRs and Certificates, and
export both public and private parts of them into PEM formatted files.

However, gnoMint is now perfectly usable for managing a CA that emits
certificates able to:
* Authenticate people or machines in VPNs (IPSec or other protocols);
* Secure HTTP communications with SSL/TLS secured web servers;
* Authenticate and cipher HTTP communications through web-client
certificates;
* Sign and/or crypt e-mails

For compiling it, its dependencies are:
* GTK+
* Gnome
* SQLite 3
* libGnuTLS 1.0.14
