Cutlass is a cross-platform system for secure peer to peer communication, oriented towards small groups. It provides VoIP, IM and file transfer. A major design goal is to be easy to use, even by non-security conscious users.

Directory server capability has been added to the library, although not
well integrated into the clients yet. To support the directory servers,
the transport layer has been modified to support request-response
transactions. This breaks backwards compatibility. A new test suite has
been added. Multiple bugfixes and a rewrite of the transport code have
been added.
Various improvements to the VoIP subsystem have been made which should
improve reliability and sound quality. A bug in handling reconnections
from the same user has been fixed. Several build and installation
bugs have also been resolved, as have a number of problems in the GTK
interface.
There are a large number of bugfixes and new features in
this release. Most notably, users can now talk to each other
using Speex compressed voice transmissions. The GUI and
console interfaces have both been improved, and there are
a number of new APIs available for UI developers.
This is a change to the libcutlass API, as well as several large bugfixes and enhancements to the transport code. The crypto is now actually functional as opposed to cosmetic.
