-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: Symantec wants to engage with Apache around ECC and DSA Datum: Fri, 13 Apr 2012 09:06:45 -0700 Von: Geoffrey Noakes <geoffrey_noa...@symantec.com> An: Igor Galic (i.ga...@brainsware.org) <i.ga...@brainsware.org>, WilliamRowe (wr...@apache.org) <wr...@apache.org>, Daniel Gruno (rum...@cord.dk)<rum...@cord.dk>, Eric Covener (cove...@gmail.com) <cove...@gmail.com>, Rainer Jung (rainer.j...@kippdata.de) <rainer.j...@kippdata.de>, bnicho...@netiq.com <bnicho...@netiq.com>, Rich Bowen (rbo...@apache.org)<rbo...@apache.org> Apache SSL team, with this message I want to schedule a time to brief Apache about our plans for ECC and DSA. My subject matter expert on this is Perry Tancredi – Perry was with VeriSign for 11 years; we are now using him as a consultant on what we call Project Cipher. Project Cipher has 2 goals: ·Accelerate our work around making ECC more ubiquitous: this will include pushing out roots and testing for support across browsers and servers ·Start our work around making DSA an alternative to RSA: this will include developing broad support for DSA crypto I would like to schedule a 15-30 minute conf call for Perry and I to talk with the Apache team on this. May I ask you to let me know if you are up for such a conversation, and assuming so, about when? We would like to have this conversation on or before Friday, April 20. I invite you to socialize this email within Apache to find the right people. Thanks… Geoff Geoffrey W.
