Hi,

It's been 4 months now that I made a no small contribution to provide wtls 
functionality to kannel. I have not received any feedback (positive or 
negative) and apparently there is no interest in it. It is a pitty, since apart 
from the development effort, there was also significant time spent to port 
everything to kannel style and sources. I was misled to believe that this would 
be worthwhile. Frankly, I cannot understand how kannel could ever claim to be a 
wap gateway, without supporting one of the 3 major protocols (WSP, WTP & WTLS).

It is therefore with regret that I retract this contribution. Since it was 
never accepted by kannel, the original commercial rights remain in effect 
(InAccess Networks and myself) and no part of the patch offered can be used in 
part or as a whole without the expressed permission of the authors.

Regretfully,
Nikos Balkanas

  Dear friends,

  This is a long overdue contribution to kannel's wap. It will provide wtls 
functionality. It has been thoroughly tested in Solaris, and compiles cleanly 
in Linux.

  I used indent to format the structure, so a lot of the differences will be 
formatting. Nevertheless, there is a lot of code in there that needed to make 
it work. Let me know if the cvs diff is the best way to submit it, or whether a 
tarball of the sources would be better. I've have had some issues with cvs diff 
in the past, so if you get any compilation warnings, I may have to go with a 
tarball.

  In particular it will provide:

  A) Supported MACs:

          SHA_0,
          SHA_40,
          SHA_80,
          SHA_NOLIMIT,
          MD5_40,
          MD5_80,
          MD5_NOLIMIT

  MIA's:
           SHA_XOR_40

  B) Supported Ciphers:

          RC5_CBC_40,
          RC5_CBC_56,
          RC5_CBC,
          DES_CBC,
          DES_CBC_40

  MIA's:
          NULL_bulk,
          TRIPLE_DES_CBC_EDE,
          IDEA_CBC_40,
          IDEA_CBC_56,
          IDEA_CBC

  C) Supported Keys:

          RSA_anon

  MIA's:
          RSA_anon_512,
          RSA_anon_768,
          RSA_NOLIMIT,
          RSA_512,
          RSA_768,
          ECDH_anon,
          ECDH_anon_113,
          ECDH_anon_131,
          ECDH_ECDSA_NOLIMIT

  Keys might seem a shortcoming, but I have yet to see a mobile that doesn't 
support RSA_anon. I do expect that a few of the rest of the keys are supported 
as well (i.e. RSA_anon_512, RSA_anon_768) just didn't have the chance to test 
them.

  Please vote and decide,
  Nikos
