Dear Martin, Thanks for your guidance, I really agree with your point of view. I started building a list of related projects, with a list of underlying frameworks and libraries. This is really a mess. There seems to be these kinds of projects: * Frameworks and libraries * CA and PKI management * Applications, network and VPNs * Public directories, proxies and Online CAs I may be able to present a picture of 20 projects and underlying crypto solutions in 15 minutes. This could be a short and non-technical presentation. Some features are hardly undocumented. For example, it seems possible to configure Firefox, evolution and subversion to use Gnomekeyring [1]. I was aware for evolution, but not firefox and subversion. If nss and Gnomekeyring can interact together, we only need a nice and complete GUI like Seahorse [2] and we have a nice solution.
