Hi Tony,
I can see you saved me the trouble to submit the proposal to the PKIX list. I am not operating in a vacuum. I am currently involved in a smart grid project within Denmark (http://www.chpcom.dk in Danish unfortunately), where use of PKI has been included. There is some pressure by the major electricity company (http://energinet.dk/EN/Sider/default.aspx) to make me the Danish Member representative in ITU-T SG17. It takes a lot of red tape. I am also active in IEC TC57 WG15. As I mentioned, the proposal has been submitted to that group for comments. I will make an effort to get onto the wpkops mailing list. I am interested in any constructive comment. Kind regards, Erik Fra: pkix [mailto:pkix-boun...@ietf.org] På vegne af Tony Rutkowski Sendt: 18. juli 2014 00:50 Til: stephen.farr...@cs.tcd.ie Cc: p...@ietf.org; wpkops@ietf.org Emne: [pkix] X.509 whitelist proposal Hi Steve, The note below was distributed earlier on the ITU-T SG17 sub-group Q11/17 list by the group's rapporteur. It might be useful to gauge industry reaction in IETF and CA/B Forum venues. Note that although the document appears on an ITU-T template, it has not been submitted. In addition, although the source is indicated as "Denmark," it is not apparent that the source is any other than than the rapporteur himself, who is identified as the contact. Lastly, although the note asserts that "IEC TC57 WG15 (smart grid security) has requested the inclusion of whitelist support in X.509," there is no apparent liaison to this effect. --tony -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [T17Q11] X.509 whitelist support Date: Thu, 17 Jul 2014 14:43:30 +0200 From: Erik Andersen <mailto:e...@x500.eu> <e...@x500.eu> To: Directory list <mailto:x500stand...@freelists.org> <x500stand...@freelists.org>, SG17-Q11 <mailto:t13sg17...@lists.itu.int> <t13sg17...@lists.itu.int> CC: SG17-Q10 <mailto:t13sg17...@lists.itu.int> <t13sg17...@lists.itu.int> IEC TC57 WG15 (smart grid security) has requested the inclusion of whitelist support in X.509. A preliminary proposal for such a feature may be found as http://www.x500standard.com/uploads/extensions/whitelistInX509.pdf The feature may in some way be combined with the trust broker concept, which probably will involve a number of changes. As it is quite important that we have workable solution, any comment is welcome. I hope you will find the time to review the proposal before it is submitted to ITU-T. Kind regards, Erik
