[REPORT] Apache Oltu

Board Report, Oltu PMC

Oltu PMC Chair: Antonio Sanso (asanso@apache.org<ma...@apache.org>)
Date: May 2014

DESCRIPTION

Oltu is a project to develop a Java library which provides an API specification for, and an unconditionally compliant implementation of the OAuth v2.0 specifications.
OAuth is a mechanism that allows users to authenticate and authorise access
by another party to resources they control while avoiding the need to share
their username and password credentials.

MILESTONES

Apache Oltu 1.0 was released on March 3rd.

CURRENT ACTIVITY

The core part of the project related to 'The OAuth 2.0 Authorization Framework' (RFC 6749) is pretty stable due the fact RFC 6749 is now a standard.

A stable version 1.0 was released on March 3rd. The current focus is on extending the coverage for the IETF JOSE specifications e.g. JWS, JWE  (that are strictly correlated to OAuth 2).

Users activity is growing slowly but steadily (the user@ mailing list has got new messages from new users)
