-Installation
-============
-
-This part of the documentation covers the installation of the LEAP Client.
-We assume that you want to get it properly installed before being able to use it.
-
-Debian package
---------------
-
-.. warning::
-
- No updated debian package yet.
-
-Once we have a release candidate, probably the easiest way of having the LEAP Client installed will be to install a .deb package under debian or ubuntu systems.
-
-
-Distribute & Pip
-----------------
-
-.. warning::
-
- This does not work yet, since we have not released an initial version yet to the cheese shop.
-
-Installing LEAP Client will be as simple as using `pip <http://www.pip-installer.org/>`_ once we have a release candidate::
-
- $ pip install leap-client
-
-Get the code
-------------
-
-.. warning::
-
- This... won't work either, as-is. This should be the third optional way to install stable releases from master branch. Right now that does not work because there is *nothing* updated in the master branch. Leaving this here since this is what we will be doing, but if you really intend to have a working tree, refer to the sections :ref:`setting up a working environment <environment>` or :ref:`fetching latest code for testing <fetchinglatest>`.
-
-You can get the code from LEAP public git repository ::
-
- git clone git://leap.se/leap_client
-
-Or from the github mirror ::
-
- git clone git://github.com/leapcode/leap_client.git
-
-Once you have grabbed a copy of the sources, you can install it into your site-packages easily ::
-
- $ pyton setup.py install

-The LEAP Client
----------------
-.. if yoy change this, change it also in the index.rst
-The **LEAP Client** is a :ref:`GPL3 Licensed <gpl3>` multiplatform client, written in python using PyQt4, that supports the features offered by :ref:`the LEAP Platform <leapplatform>`. Currently is being tested on Linux, support for OSX and Windows will come soon.
-
-Features
-^^^^^^^^
-
-The LEAP Client allows to easily secure communications.
-
-- Provider selection
-- User registration
-- Encrypted Internet Proxy support (autoconfigured service using openvpn).
-
-Coming soon
-^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-- Encrypted email

-The LEAP Platform
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-The LEAP Provider Platform is the server-side part of LEAP that is run by service providers. It consists of a set of complementary packages and recipes to automate the maintenance of LEAP services in a hardened GNU/Linux environment. Our goal is to make it painless for service providers and ISPs to deploy a secure communications platform.

-
-The Right to Whisper
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-LEAP fights for *the right to whisper*.
-
-Like free speech, the right to whisper is an necessary precondition for **a free society**. Without it, civil society and political freedom become impossible. As the importance of digital communication for civic participation increases, so does the importance of the ability to digitally whisper.
-
-Unfortunately, advances in surveillance technology are rapidly eroding the ability to whisper. This is a worldwide problem, not simply an issue for people in repressive contexts. Acceptance of poor security in the West creates a global standard of insecure practice, even among civil society actors who urgently need the ability to communicate safely.
-
-The stakes could not be higher. Activists are dying because their communication technologies betray their identity, location, and conversations. When activists attempt to secure their communications, they face confusing software, a dearth of secure providers, and a greater risk of being flagged as potential troublemakers. In other words, problems of usability, availability, and adoption.
-
-Our vision
-^^^^^^^^^^
-The LEAP vision is to attack these problems of usability, availability, and adoption head on.
-
-To address **usability**:
- we are creating a complete system where the user-facing client software is
- tightly coupled with the cloud-base components of the system. All our software
- will be auto-configuring, prevent users from practicing insecure behavior, and
- primarily limit the configuration options to those moments when the user is placing i
- their trust in another entity.
-
-To address **availability**:
- LEAP will work closely with service providers to adopt our open source, automatedl
- platform for running high-availability communication services. By lowering the
- barriers of entry to become a reliable provider, we can increase the supply and
- decrease the cost of secure communications.
-
-To address **adoption**:
- the LEAP platform layers higher security on top of existing protocols to allow
- users a gradual transition path and backward compatibility. Our goal is to create
- services that are attractive in terms of features, usability, and price for users in
- both democratic and repressive contexts.
-
-All contributions should have these three points in mind.

-Running
-==================
-
-This document dovers how to launch the LEAP Client.
-
-Launching the client

-After a successful installation, there should be a launcher called leap-client somewhere in your path::
-
- % leap-client
-
-
-.. _debugmode:
-
-Debug mode
-----------
-If you are happy having lots of output in your terminal, you will like to know that you can run the client in debug mode::
-
- $ leap-client --debug
-
-If you ask for it, you can also have all that debug info in a beautiful file ready to be attached to your bug reports::
-
- $ leap-client --debug --logfile /tmp/leap.log
-
-.. warning::
- the following is broken since it will clutter your stdout with all the commands sent to the management interface.
- See bug #1232
-
-If you want to increment the level of verbosity passed to openvpn, you can do::
-
-
- $ leap-client --openvpn-verbosity 4
-
-Options
