After talking with Janet yesterday/today,
the blockage around the JAAS code CQ has been cleared and you are now ok
to put the code mentioned in CQ 1549 in the Equinox incubator CVS repo.
Woohoo! Congratulations and thanks for your patience.
Please work with Oleg and the Equinox
community (likely via equinox-dev) to ensure the code gets in, in the right
place/form and is widely publicized as being available. In particular,
it would be good if you can reach out to Neil Bartlett (EclipseJAAS) and
the others who have expressed interest/expertise in this area to get some
review and look for opportunities for better, deeper integration and addressing
further usecases.
Please also ensure that the website
and wikis are updated. The Security workarea information seems a
bit dated and does not have highlevel items pointing one in the direction
of your latest work. The website does not point to the wiki. it
would be great if the wiki/web (likely wiki) had "how to" guides
for using this new function, wiki pages with JAAS, JCA, ... in the title
would be good, etc.
Anyway, this is great! There will
be alot of people very excited about this.
