Hi Arshad -

If you could post the last message to the membership for me? Meanwhile
I'll contact oasis admin to correct the problem.

Thanks -

Bob

Hi -

I absolutely agree -- though the charter of IEEE P1619.3 is
significantly different from that of EKMI, there is more than enough
convergence in immediate focus to warrant working together.

There are several things I would suggest:

- The EKMI and P1619.3 meetings overlap this week (the P1619.3 meeting
starts at 10am PDT). It would be very valuable to have Arshad and/or
other members from EKMI join the P1619.3 call to discuss cooperation
across the two groups. I'll suggest this to the P1619.3 committee chair
as an item on the agenda?

- If it is allowable until OASIS rules, it would be great to make the
current draft spec available to P1619.3. 

- EKMI members may want to review the various proposals on the table in
P1619.3. They are available from the meeting minutes at
http://ieee-p1619.wetpaint.com/page/Meeting+Minutes.

Regards,

Bob

I had an action item to forward this e-mail to the list.
Unfortunately, despite another e-mail to follow-up, I
never received a response from either of them.

Bob (Griffin), I know you're an observer on this list,
but if you have some influence over the IEEE WG to bring
us to the table to discuss joint goals and how we might
work together, I believe it will benefit everyone in the
industry.  Thanks.

Gentlemen,

I just read of the IEEE WG (1619.3) to focus on key-management for
disk-encryption.

There is an OASIS Technical Committee, the Enterprise Key Management
Infrastructure (EKMI) Technical Committee that just got created this
month to focus on key-management for the enterprise:

http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=ekmi

While I realize your scope is focused on key-management protocols for
storage devices, is it possible to have a conversation of how your
work and ours might mesh together?  I see some overlapping areas in
the two groups.

I am in the CA Bay Area and if necessary, I would be happy to meet
you somewhere in the valley (assuming you are in the Bay Area too,
James).

I invite you to take a look at our open-source software - StrongKey -
that has implemented a simple XML-based protocol for requesting
symmetric key-management services from centralized servers:

http://www.strongkey.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id3
D46&It
emid=35

This protocol is being submitted on a royalty-free basis to OASIS
for consideration of standardization.

If there are ways in which the IEEE and OASIS might work together
on common goals, I believe it will benefit everyone.  Looking
forward to hearing from you.

Regards,

Arshad Noor
