IIRC, JSS is a JCE provider, as well as providing an API. One of the problems we have with JSS open source is the difficulty allowing the community to build and load that functionality, because you need a certificate provided by Sun to do so... so ironically JSS as a JCE provider can work in fedora with gcj, but not with the Sun jvm. (Of cource the Red Hat RHEL version is so signed, so can be used as a provider in all JVMs.

Steve/Glenn have I represented things correctly here?
