+ANNOUNCING Bitmask, the internet encryption toolkit, v0.3.0
+
+The LEAP team is pleased to announce the immediate availability of
+version 0.3.0 of Bitmask
+
+https://downloads.leap.se/client/
+
+LEAP (LEAP Encryption Access Project) develops a plan to secure
+everyday communication, breaking down into discrete services.
+
+The client for the current phase gives support to the EIP Service and
+the first beta release of Encrypted Mail.
+EIP (the Encrypted Internet Proxy) provides circumvention,
+location anonymization, and traffic encryption in a hassle-free,
+automatically self-configuring fashion.
+Encrypted Mail
+
+You can read the user manual and the developer notes online at:
+
+http://bitmask.readthedocs.org/
+
+WARNING: This is still a beta release of our services, a lot of
+testing and audits are still needed so DO NOT use this for strong
+security.
+
+
+WHAT CAN THIS VERSION OF THE CLIENT DO FOR ME?
+
+You can connect to the EIP service offered by a provider of your
+choice, and enjoy a encrypted internet connection.
+
+The first run wizard allows to register an user with the selected
+provider, downloading all the config files needed to connect to the
+eip service. There are also some minimal network checks in place.
+
