Java Security: How Free Software Is Secured Using the Java Language

After a general introduction to why Java seems a reasonable choice for
writing large and robust free software packages, the talk discusses the
security features of the Java platform. It is shown how several actors
play together to ensure type safety, encapsulation and declarative access
control. Four concrete denial-of-service attacks illustrate the
importance of enhancing the platform by techniques for managing resource
consumption.

As Mark said on this list, one of the talks in the FOSDEM security track
couldn't be given, which was an unexpected opportunity to present Java
security (and the existence of free Java implementations) to a broader
audience. Because there was so little time for preparation, we had to
mangle the general presentation into something that might be of interest
to a security audience. IMHO, this just-in-time squeezing has left some
visible scratches and rough edges, but the audience didn't seem to
complain. Some people even came and asked how they could help Classpath.

Thanks heaps to Chris, Dalibor, Mark and everyone else who helped with
last-minute comments, late-night hacking, etc.

Best regards,

-- Sascha

FOSDEM slides

2006-02-27 Thread Roman Kennke
Hi there,

I have added my slides from FOSDEM2006 to the Wiki at:

http://developer.classpath.org/mediation/Fosdem2006

I simply have dropped in into the schedule.

I had to make some slight corrections: JTable and JTree editing seems to
work quite well now, and - what surprises me even more - copy and
pasting seems to just-work as well. Robert has done the work to make
text selection possible. Yesterday I tried and hit CTRL+C inside a Swing
text field and CTRL+V inside GEdit and it works. This really put me off
my socks... :-)

However, I would like to encourage everybody who made a presentation to
upload his slides and/or other material to the Wiki as well. I found
everything that I've seen really interesting and would like to read over
it again. Of course, it would also be nice for those who couldn't come.

This was a great weekend!
Cheers, Roman

Hi all,

Also returned home from Fosdem. It was great!
Still catching up on email and all the new patches. Please be patient if
you are expecting a reply on some message from me. But feel free to ping
me in case I missed something important. Again everybody that didn't
come to drink and talk did a lot of real work! It will be a challenge to
get up to speed again on all the patches.

Grin. I must say I was also amazed about some of the things I saw and
heard this weekend! We need to do a new GNU Classpath snapshot soon to
get all the new good stuff in the hands of our users.

Yes please! If you have slides (or pictures from the event) please post
them somewhere. I would love to reread some of the presentations.

It was indeed!
Apologies to everybody that couldn't make it.

Cheers,

Mark

I'll get my slides posted tonight I hope.  I enjoyed the weekend, the 
presentations were great and it was nice to meet people in person.  
Already I am looking forward to FOSDEM 2007 and reports of the great 
advances we have made in 2006!


Regards,

Dave

FOSDEM: slides from JamVM talk

2006-03-13 Thread Robert Lougher
Hi,

Roman has kindly uploaded the slides from my talk to the Wiki (see
http://developer.classpath.org/mediation/Fosdem2006).

Thanks,

Rob.

P.S.  There's one obvious mistake on slide 2.  The release date of
JamVM 1.4.2 should be 2006 not 2005!
