Yes. I wrote a version of JKS [1] but since I figured out the format through some hacky reverse-engineering, which was deemed too risky to include in Classpath. If, however, someone were to use the English description of the format [2] that I wrote and re-implemented it from scratch, the FSF (the last time we asked) said that would be OK. > Is it possible to convert a 'JKS' keystore into a 'gkr' one by using the JDK > and > a Classpath based VM? If so, how would that be done? > Yes. You can export each of the certificates from the truststore to files, using the JDK's `keytool,' and then import them all to a GKR keystore with Classpath's `gkeytool.' Hope this helps. 1. http://metastatic.org/source/JKS.java 2. http://metastatic.org/source/JKS.html
