Re: [higgins-dev] Status of CardSpace i-card providers

So it's important that BC not become part of the Higgins distribution and that just JCE APs will be used with common algorithms names (aliases)

Subject	[higgins-dev] Status of CardSpace i-card providers

Sergey Lyakhov (slyakhov@xxxxxxxxxxxxx) is developing two i-card providers (see rows B and C here [1]) to provide CardSpace interoperability. The first is called “CMIP” (see [2]) for short. The second is called "CPIP" (see [3]) for short.
 
CMIP
----
- basic code will be checked in on 4/4
 
CPIP
---
- basic code will be checked in on 4/4
- due to recent "update-related" changes in IdAS metadata can no longer be updated so any update operations do not currently work
 
CMIP and CPIP
-------------
- both share some common code for .crds card backup/restore
- to do this 256 bit crypto is required
- either the IBM or SUN JVMs require export licenses to be acquired and installed to do 256 bit crypto. (128 bit is the legal limit)
- we are in the process of removing a dependency on http://www.bouncycastle.org library as this cannot be redistributed from Eclipse.
