KOffice Encryption and Signing Support

Originally posted for SoC 2006

Currently there is no way of encrypting documents within KOffice. The Oasis Open Document format has a defined method for encrypting documents, which would be great to support within KOffice. As an extension to this task, the way that OpenOffice currently supports digital signing of files could be investigated, documented, and implemented within KOffice.

References: See the Oasis Office Document Format Specification for more details, including some hints on a potential implementation.

Actually, encryption was implemented for KOffice during the Programmeerzomer 2006 -- and recently ported to KOffice 2.0. It needs a bit of work still, but we've come a long way.

I just posted it on request.

If it is implemented, the topic is obsolete.

Can anyone using KDE verify this?
