What is the status of the DNSCrypt Technology
If it's such a vital piece of the internet security, why it is still in 0.6 version and it has been for over a year? I would like to install it but I feel like I would be doing testing for you guys. You need to put explicit statement as to its status and a schedule would be a good start too. Otherwise, I will feel like you are not serious about it. You just put it out there and see if it sticks. this approach also puts in question the OpenDNS technology. Is it as casual as the Crypt technology?

This 0.6 version is the old GUI version, right? You'll run the dnscrypt-proxy alone, without GUI. There are far later versions and also plugins available.
Latest version from Aug/Sep this year.
"I will feel like you are not serious about it. You just put it out there and see if it sticks. this approach also puts in question the OpenDNS technology."
Just for the sake of clarity, although OpenDNS (and other) servers support the DNSCrypt protocol, the client version isn't from them. And just in case you treat this as an "official statement", I'm just a user, not affiliated with OpenDNS or DNSCrypt.

thanks rotblitz, good advice. i did look at the http://dnscrypt.org/ site and it looks better. yet, i am still hesitant to deploy it on my system. did you have any problems with the latest version?
