Hi Mohamed,

many thanks for your interest. The work on the UI is pretty simple in general- as long as you stick 
to default controls. We use Glade and Gtk widget with some magic to load [1]. Don't worry too much 
about this, at least I don't see much UI work related to OpenPGP.

Always a bit more challenging is the workflow, so the UX aspect. We can discuss everything in 
detail and I'll try to help as best as I can. LibreOffice has a design team with some pretty 
talented designers and with people like me who focus on UX. You won't be alone :-).

All the best for your project,
Heiko

Hello
I am interested in the OpenPGP UX idea but I wanted to know if my skill set was enough.

--What C++ libraries do I need to know to be able to work on this idea ?
--I am not experienced with UI/UX work on desktop applications as most of my work was basic UI or 
without UI at all. How hard will it be for me to work on a UX idea like OpenPGP ?

Best Regards
Mohamed Sameh
