Hello Everyone,
Hope you are all doing great ! It is long overdue, but I finally
have a web developer with some free time to take a look at updating
the Muscle site.
We've been getting a lot of requests on how to properly setup a Linux
client and device with the Muscle applet so it can be used with our
OpenID server: openid.trustbearer.com Naturally, we point people off
to the Muscle site to get setup, but it is too confusing for an
outsider so we want to make it easer to navigate and to drop the dead
code.
I wanted to post some of our thoughts on how we plan to address this.
The site will be very basic with the following menus: Home, History,
Software, Mailing List, About
Most of these are fairly self-explanatory.
Under software, focus on what it takes to make a complete stack (4
main categories of software):
1) CCID Driver (or if you don't have a CCID reader - here is another
page that contains other drivers)
2) PC/SC Lite
- For both of these I'll point off to the subversion repository
but work with Ludovic to keep a link on the site with the latest
*stable* versions of each
3) PKCS#11/PAM/OpenSSL/etc (OpenSC)
- We added MuscleCard to OpenSC about a year ago and it should
continue to work fine.
- I will put a link going back to another page for the
libmusclecard, libmusclecard-pkcs11, etc
4) MuscleCard Applet & GPShell
- We''ll have a link to the latest stable MuscleCard applet for
JavaCard and also the latest stable GPShell to load the applet.
- We'll also point off to their SVN/CVS repositories as well.
We don't plan to get rid of anything - meaning we will keep some
discrete links on the site to legacy code / applications. My goal is
also
to move the Muscle site to a new server so we can have an overall
Wiki for the Muscle project as well as the Wiki/trac/svn that each of
the sub projects contain.
Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. I want to
get everyone's input before going too deep into this.
Thanks,
Dave
