[caops-wg] Re: OCSP Requirements - CAOPS mailing list summary

[Mike Helm]

This is a set of pointers to where/when OCSP discussion has taken
place on the CAOPS mailing list.  I think that this list is public,
and easily accessible, so I will not repost it.

I think the most interesting material is in the May-June block, and
Jesus Luna's most recent comments at the end of Oct.  More on this
later.

[Set of comments from JL about OCSP proxy cert issues, responding to issues
 raised in earlier discussion & at GGF]

Frank Siebenlist discussed the client API licensing with CertiVeR, and 
as I understand it they have agreed to change the licensing to an Apache-like
license; this would allow "vendors" like Globus and perhaps other middleware packagers
to incorporate and use the source code.  [Or so I understand it.]

There are probably some other sideways discussions that didn't take place
completely or at all on the CAOPS list which could be useful.  I don't think
I will look any deeper but if any issue has been missed please bring it up.

Thanks, ==mwh
