Milestone 1.0M8

Revision as of 14:10, 1 March 2007 by Paul.socialphysics.org (Talk | contribs) (Existing Deployments)

Date: Apr 15

Highlights

Summary: "Early-Alpha"

  • All components:
    • Exist (except ISS Client UI)
    • Support basic functions
    • Have up to date wiki pages (at least the first page!)
    • Have documented build instructions (Note: we will not delay this milestone waiting for all 3rd party libraries to clear Eclipse IP review--we will document where to go get these 3rd party libraries if we must)
    • As many as possible are built nightly
    • All core EPL code has cleared legal issues so that we may commit code abhi
    • All component external interfaces have been reverted to Java 1.4 (e.g. For ISS/RPPS 176044 abhi)
  • New deployments (see below)
  • Work begins on a C# ISS Client UI and changes to HBX to support this (see H3 IdA)

New Supported Deployments

By this milestone we will have the following deployments documented as to how to build them and in some cases hosted as a test service on an Eclipse Foundation server. See Deployments for the definition of each of these.

CardSpace-interoperable Identity Provider/STS

  • See definition
  • Complete build instructions Daniel and MikeM
  • Get this running on the Eclipse Fedora 5 VM MikeM
    • Paula, BrianC, Daniel are all working on documenting this
    • Hosted on Eclipse Foundation server
    • MikeM: we really need a read/writable Context Provider. We need this soon. Preferably file-based
    • Valery: the other problem is that the Jena code that we have conflicts with IdAS Registry issues
    • MikeM: I have my own code that writes into the LDAP directory

H1 Identity Agent

definition])

    • This deployment needs an owner (SergeyY, probably)
    • Hosted on Eclipse Foundation server
    • Functional equivalence with Microsoft CardSpace(TM) client (though hosted)
    • We can begin testing interoperability with RPs and IdPs that work with CardSpace

H3 Identity Agent

  • See definition
  • Developers have been asking for this deployment documented and running on a local Tomcat server
  • Need to decide if this is do-able in M0.8 timeframe

RPPS Web Service

Existing Deployments

RSS-SSE RP Test Application

Nightly Builds

  • Status: As you can see here we currently only build IdAS nightly (or stable-y)
  • Parity has allocated a part-time engineer, Evgeniy, who can work on this, but until Component Owners document their build procedures nothing is going to happen.
  • Another barrier is waiting for Eclipse IP review
  • Planned additions: all Components
  • Flesh out this page Nightly Component Builds Evgeniy

Components

RSS-SSE RP Test App

HBX

  • HBX Startup Maxim and Andy Dale
  • Add the ability to handle CardSpace requests to the Zurich HBX 176037 abhi
  • Add proper handling of SOAP fault messages to UI code 176038 abhi
  • Handle Memory and Garbage Collection issues for generated-UI structures 176039 abhi
  • Allow HBX launch ISS Client UI for H2 deployment scenario

I-Card Manager

ISS

  • Handle parsing and matching of CardSpace policies 176033 abhi
  • Improvements to error handling for bad policies 176034 abhi
  • Deployability on machines other than those around Zurich 176035 abhi

RP Protocol Support-Zurich

  • Handle generation of SOAP faults with good messages on errors 176041 abhi
  • Make RPPS easily deployable for other clients 176035 abhi
  • The RPPS we have built sends SOAP messages. We have written a wsdl file to describe the messages. However, it uses an ad-hoc method for parsing and handling the messages because I found the Eclipse tools for building web services from wsdl to be buggy and frustrating to debug. Thus, improving the robustness of our rpps by using more standard ws tools might be a goal.

I-Card Registry

I-Card Providers

IdAS

  • IdAS Registry refactoring 175630 163366
  • Refactor update operations 167978
    • Add methods for creating attribute values 163428
    • Make create*() methods consistent 163429
    • Go through each operation and document what atomicity means for each 171290
  • Invent string format for IFilter 171328
  • Change IContext.open to use JAAS-like callback; get rid of 'getOpenPolicy' (subsumed by callback handlers and interactions) 164048
  • De-evolve IdAS interfaces to Java 1.4 171293
  • Build Issues:
    • Versioning on jar name

IdAS Context providers

  • Jena-based provider (uses HSQLDB) [80% done] [waiting on IPzilla] 152856 SergeyL
