Hi,

I have some plans for future work. First of all I'd like to extend support
for OpenSSL's ENGINE.

I have planned to write some code to implement an ENGINE allowing OpenSSL
to use the MUSCLEcard framework so as to use SmartCards just as the other
HW tokens (it could be useful in our project to use the CA keys on a Smart
Card rather then on the HardDrive and having to protect a whole computer
instead of a little piece of plastic ).

This work will allow, that's our goal, to use the openssl together with
any MUSCLE's supported SC and reader. We plan to use this to support CA's keys
directly on SC with crypto features ( such as cryptoFlex, CyberFlex, etc... ).

Let me know if some work has been already made by someone and if we can
cooperate in this work.

Next open issues are: SCEP and OCSP.

We have to work to enhance OCSP support and better code the server because
it has been left quite unfinished.

About SCEP ( Cisco Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol ) a friend of
mine lent me a 3640 to work on but I am really new to Cisco's IOS so I have
some questions for you. The first is which version of Cisco's IOS have I
to install for VPN and SCEP extensions to be enabled ?

C'you,
