Hi What Erlang/OTP version should YXA 1.0 require?
Distributed Erlang over SSL is broken in R11B-3, R11B-4 and R11B-5. This feature is needed if you have more than one YXA application, and want their inter-node communication to be protected from eavesdropping. A fix for this has been made available by Bruce Fitzsimons : http://www.erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-questions/2007-July/027879.html I can't count on there being an Erlang/OTP R11B-6 with the fix before EUC '07. I see the following options : 1) Release YXA 1.0 now, with a dependency on R11B-2. 2) Release YXA 1.0 now, depending on R11B-5. Ship a patched version of ssl_prim with it, that gets added first in the code path - thus fixing the problem in R11B-5 (will break if a distro ships R11B-5 with some other change to ssl_prim). 3) Release YXA 1.0 now, depending on R11B-2. Provide a patch that accomplishes the same thing as option #2. 4) Wait with YXA 1.0 until R11B-6 is released (and hope the problem is fixed in R11B-6). What do you think I should do? Number 1 and 3 are of course the easy ones for me, if I still want to get YXA 1.0 out before EUC '07 (which I do). /Fredrik _______________________________________________ Yxa-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.su.se/mailman/listinfo/yxa-devel
