+RetroShare (Decentralized chat, email, forums, and file sharing)
+
+RetroShare is a Open Source cross-platform, Friend-2-Friend and secure
+decentralised communication platform. It lets you to securely chat
+and share files with your friends, family and coworkers, using a
+web-of-trust to authenticate peers and OpenSSL to encrypt all
+communication. RetroShare provides filesharing, chat, messages,
+forums and channels.
+
+Note: RetroShare uses /usr/lib/retroshare/extensions/ to store its
+plugins, against standard Slackware convention. RetroShare hardwires
+this into the code. This build does not attempt to patch the source
+code to fix this, though the maintainer welcomes patches to fix this
+issue.
