That's wonderful news, but I'm curious about a couple things:<p>(a) How much, if any, of the original TrueCrypt source code was used? The anonymous TrueCrypt author(s) inexplicably refused to open source their code even after abandoning the project, so although all TrueCrypt source code is available, the TrueCrypt author(s) still own it.<p>(b) Who is behind VeraCrypt? I see two names (idrassi and kavsrf), but who are they really? There were only two developers? Did anyone finance it other than public donations on their website? I'm tremendously grateful for their efforts and I intend to make a donation shortly, but I think we'd all trust it a little more if we knew more about the people behind it.<p>The source code availability and the audit are even more important than knowing about the people, but knowing about the people adds something as well. A video interview or newsmagazine profile about them would be ideal. (Perhaps I'm asking something contradictory since someone who writes a TrueCrypt replacement is probably a very private person.)
