Re: [pki-tc-comment] Interest and comment on the organisation ofa"security" oriented interoperability event in 2004 and including PKI,XadESand IPsec topics.

[Steve Hanna <Steve.Hanna@Sun.COM>]

Thanks very much for supplying this information
to the OASIS PKI Technical Committee. I apologize
for the delay in my response caused by the holidays.

I'm glad to forward this information to the members
of the OASIS PKI Technical Committee. I hope that
PKI vendors and other relevant parties among our
members will consider participating in the security
Plugtests you are planning this spring. PKI TC members,
please pass this notice on to others who may want
to participate.

Interoperability testing is an important piece needed
to promote interoperation among PKI products and
between PKI products and PKI using software such
as digital signature and IPsec products. I praise
this effort and hope that it will become an ongoing
and regular event.

Will you publish the findings of your efforts?
Based on the results from the EEMA PKI Challenge
and the JKST-IWG interop, I expect that you will
find the relevant specifications not sufficiently
specific. We really must move to address this
problem. Please review the draft PKI Action Plan
published by the OASIS PKI Technical Committee at
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/pki/pkiactionplan.pdf
and send us your comments.

Thanks,

Steve Hanna
Co-chair, OASIS PKI Technical Committee

To date, the service has organised 40 interoperability events and has a plan to organise a minimum of 12 events per year (see more at www.etsi.org/plugtests .

> The Plugtests had a first experience in successfully organising on November 2003, the first XAdES (XML Advanced Electronic Signature) interoperability event. In parallel to XadES, many interests where expressed to consider interoperability events for PKI and IPsec. As these topics are inter-related, the idea came up to explore the organisation of an interoperability event in 2004 on the overall Security theme which would include the three active topics of (Xad)Electronic Signature, PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) and IPsec (IP secure).
