I was wondering if its better to rather have a checkbox to show the entered
password. Typing them two times on a virtual keyboard is cumbersome, isn't
it?

(this email comes from my new email address, the last one made me realized
I forgot to switch subscription to active when i changed the address)

    Hi there,<br>
<br>
    In the last days we had a lot of discussions about the security topic.<br>
    In my team we already had a look how the UI dialogs could look<br>
    like and in last fridays telco we talked about that as well.<br>
<br>
    So here my current findings presented in a flowchart regarding<br>
    &quot;private&quot; (means encrypted) activities:<br>
    <a href="http://share.basyskom.com/contour/UIDesign/flowchart_PrivateActivities.pdf" \
target="_blank">http://share.basyskom.com/<u></u>contour/UIDesign/flowchart_<u></u>PrivateActivities.pdf</a><br>
 <br>
    Asumptions:<br>
    - Mark Activity as private: toggle Button in &quot;Create new activity&quot;<br>
    and &quot;Activity Configuration&quot; Dialog; details see flowchart<br>
<br>
<br>
What about having a password confirmation or &quot;show password&quot; option so the \
user can be sure that she typed the correct password while creating the activity. \
Chances of typos on the virtual keyboard is even more. Or am I wrong?<br>
