CICM Distro List, One application in which this API is needed in the development of high assurance software definable radios. In JTRS this is handled by the "closed" JTRS Red Security Services (RSS) API which is under need-to-know distribution control of the U.S. DoD. An equivalent open standard would provide reduced development costs through commercial competition and a wider global market. The API would also be helpful in the wider range of communications systems, such as terminals and crypto devices (ECUs), that are becoming increasingly "software definable." Thanks, Otaway
