XML Security for Java 2.0

[Colm O hEigeartaigh <co...@apache.org>]

Hi all,

In an earlier mail to this list, I described a proposal for a 2.0 version
of the XML Security for Java project:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.text.xml.security.devel/7575

I'd like to start working on this proposal shortly. Essentially, this
involves copying the current trunk code to a branch, and moving the
streaming XML Security code from the WSS4J project branch into a new
package on trunk:

https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/webservices/wss4j/branches/swssf/bindings/
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/webservices/wss4j/branches/swssf/streaming-xml-security/

This will require dropping JDK 1.5 support for the 2.0 release. As part of
this work I will also start a vote to make Marc Giger a committer on the
Santuario project, as he is the original author (and active maintainer) of
the code.

Any feedback or objections to this plan are welcome...

Colm.

On the C++ side, it's unlikely I would do anything with this code base if I worked on any 2.0 code. My needs in OpenSAML are limited to very specific use cases, and maintaining the full code base, with a totally incompatible XML processing model, is a lot of extra work.

At this point, Santuario (Java) does not implement the XML DSig v2.0 spec.
Of course, it'd be cool to support the new features, but we need someone
willing to do the work ;-) I have no immediate plans to work on it, maybe
after the streaming stuff gets done.

I had envisioned Santuario version 2.0 would be the implementation of 
XML Signature Syntax and Processing Version 2.0
I know there is nothing requiring this, but it had strong appeal to me.

What is the status of Santuario with respect to XML DSig v2.0?
