[equinox-dev] JAAS integration (security)

[Scott Lewis <slewis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've heard a rumor :) that post-Europa there will be some JAAS 
integration bundles being contributed to Equinox for security 
enhancements (i.e. supporting platform-level authentication...hope, 
hope, etc).

Is there any way to find out/begin review/start contributing 
ideas/requirements/enhancements for this work for those of us not 
Equinox committers (i.e. other community members)? 

Just by way of example, for some time, ECF uses/extends the Principal 
interface for it's concept of 'IDs' (user ID, process ID, service ID, 
etc).  Iff the JAAS integration work provides services and/or extension 
points to allow other plugins (ours and those built upon ours) to 
contribute Principals and Credentials to authenticated Subjects upon 
successful authentication, we would be most happy :).

Thanksinadvance,

Scott
