Hi Kevin,
First of all, you're addressing your request to a developper only
mailing-list (openssl-dev). That's bad.
Second point, it seems you didn't understand that OpenSSL is not a PKI
product in itself, built by a company. It's an open source API, developed
by volunteers within their spare free time.
Last point, I don't think that your teacher would like those volunteers to
do your job. If *they* fill in your Excel document, who will get the note?
Did you really understand what your teacher asked you to do?

Mr or Mrs,
I'm a sudent in network technologie at EPITA (a french computing school in Paris)
and I'm in telecommunication specialisation. I've to do a report on PKI. More
exactely my report deals about the comparaison of the different PKI solution.
During my research, I've discovered your PKI products.
I would like to know if you could help me sending me some technical documentations
in order to compare your products with other PKI products.
I think that there are 5 PKI families:
- open products like OpenCA
- products to build a in house PKI like Baltimore, Entrust...
- integrated product like Windows 2000
- outsourcing PKI infrastructure
- certification autority who only deliver certification like enditrust or click and
trust.
During my research I have found different point to compare the PKI :
- Certificate support
- Revocation methods
- Scalability
- Security
- PKI topologies
- Registration mechanisms for all the functions (email, VPN, Web ...)
- Directory support
- Smart Card support
- Key management
- Interoperability
- Algorithm supported
In order to make easy this comparaison I have created a comparaison table.
I've joined this Excel table (tableau_PKI.xls). I would be glade if you could fill
it.
Thank you for your time and your interest.
I'm looking foreward to reading you.
Yours sincerely
