-OTR
-===
-
-*DISCLAIMER: THE OTR LIB IS IN AN EXPERIMENTAL STATE AND SHOULD NOT BE
-CONSIDERED AS ENTIRELY RELIABLE*
-
-('though it works pretty well')
-
-This plugin implements http://wiki.xmpp.org/web/OTR[Off The Record messaging].
-
-This is a plugin used to encrypt one-to-one conversation using the OTR
-encryption method. You can use it if you want good privacy, deniability,
-authentication, and strong secrecy. Without this
-encryption, your messages are encrypted *at least* from your client (poezio) to
-your server. The message is decrypted by your server and you cannot control the
-encryption method of your messages from your server to your contact’s server
-(unless you are your own server’s administrator), nor from your contact’s
-server to your contact’s client.
-
-This plugin does end-to-end encryption. This means that *only* your contact can
-decrypt your messages, and it is fully encrypted during *all* its travel
-through the internet.
-
-Note that if you are having an encrypted conversation with a contact, you can
-*not* send XHTML-IM messages to him. They will be removed and be replaced by
-plain text messages.
-
