We are requesting endorsement from the security community and the networking community. Thanks, -Krishna -- OPENSOLARIS PROJECT PROPOSAL -- Project Name: Kernel SSL Enhancements Short Name: kssl Project Synopsis: Kernel SSL Enhancements to make it more widely usable. Project Purpose: OpenSolaris has a kernel level SSL server proxy (KSSL) that can be used for improved SSL performance on the server side. It can be configured as a proxy for a non-SSL server (e.g. web servers like Apache and Sun web server) to communicate with a SSL client. There is an ongoing effort to add new features to KSSL. This project proposes to provide a place for that ongoing effort. Possible initial enhancements include: * Debugging tools and scripts * Add IPv6 support * Add support for TLS 1.1 * Performance optimizations * Add support for client authentication * Add support for ECC cipher suites A new mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] is requested. Proposed Community Sponsors: Security and Networking Participants: Project leads: Krishna Yenduri (O.S. id: krishna), primary contact Kais Belgaied (O.S. id: kais) Vladimir Kotal (O.S. id: vkotal) Other Participants: Darren Moffat (O.S. id: darrenm) Pallab Bhattacharya (O.S. id: pallab) Other interested participants: please speak up, or join the project list once we have it running.
