David and Javi got PSM 2.0 running on my Win2000 desktop. Here is my
first report. I'm running the 03/29 build of Mozilla.
Things that work:
-SSL server-auth to my bank, my brokerage account, several online stores
-Some error messages like cert-name-mismatch and expired-cert
-SDR (Secret Decoder Ring, the "Encrypt Sensitive Data" option)
-SSL/NNTP
-lock icon and tooltips
Things that do NOT work:
-SSL client-auth (using my personal cert to login to web sites)
-SSL/SMTP (setting the pref seems to work, but I'm pretty sure it's not
even trying like in the SSL client-auth example above)
-prefs settings (they are in the prefs window but not hooked up)
-import/export of P12 files
Performance seems quite good in most cases, with the possible exeption
of junruh's SSL torture test of lots of small images. That page takes
about 10-15 seconds to load. John will have to start up with new
performance tests after we convert to PSM 2 in the daily builds.
In general, PSM2 is more than stable and fast enough for online shopping
and banking. As David said in his 3/29 post, we'll need *lots* of QA
help when we post the XPI files.
