Matt -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: Request for comments on 'Certificate Management Protocol (CMP, RFC 4210) extension #681'" Date: Tue, 14 Aug 2018 17:27:33 +0000 From: Brockhaus, Hendrik <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> CC: [email protected] <[email protected]>, [email protected] <[email protected]>, [email protected] <[email protected]>, Peylo, Martin (Nokia - FI/Espoo) <[email protected]>, von Oheimb, David <[email protected]> Hi Back in 2007 Nokia started developing a CMP client based on OpenSSL that is currently in use in LTE infrastructure components. Siemens joined in the project some years ago to extend and utilize the code for further industrial use cases. We are aware that a lot of other users of this implementation. Right from the beginning it was the goal of the project to contribute the code upstream OpenSSL some time, see RT item #3101, GitHub issue #5926 and pull request #6811. Integrating CMPforOpenSSL would make things much easier for all people using it already and also for those who use OpenSSL to automate their certificate management based on CMP. The footprint of the code is about 17.000 lines of code plus test and configuration data. There are unit tests and a large amount of interoperability test (with EJBCA and Insta CA). These tests can provide initial confidence in the functionality and quality of the implementation. In the past months we already got some feedback supporting the contribution. To get the contribution reviewed and merged by the project we know that there will be considerable effort needed on both sides. Therefore we'd like to understand the opinion of the group of committers and OMC members if this contribution should be integrated with OpenSSL. Martin, David, and Hendrik Ps.: I will be out of the office the next weeks; Martin and David are available to follow up on this discussion.
