Dear All, Searching the archives of openssl-*, I did not find much references to OpenSSL and CDSA. Thus, I would like to convey some nice news regarding the two. CDSA 2.0 is a security infrastructure developed by Intel and others. The Open Group standards organisation adopted it as a standard and it is even available from www.opengroup.org in PDF/HTML form. CDSA 2.0 can accept a variety of cryptographic toolkits, since it does not itself provide any cryptographic primitives. Intel and others are doing an implementation of CDSA 2.0 and distribute it under the BSD licence + export restrictions. The current version is 1.3 and among the highlights is that one of the available cryptographic toolkits supported is OpenSSL (0.9.5a). Currently, there is a Windows.* implementation available although there is a planned one for Linux (and others?) for August/September. The Linux port is being done by Intel, Bull and Caldera Systems. The above information were taken from http://developer.intel.com/ial/security/ Looking forward for the Linux port, Simos Xenitellis [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://ospkibook.sourceforge.net ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
