CryptoServer

Roadmap

The table below summarizes the functionality that the CryptoServer is expected to have at revision n.n.n. In other words, these are milestones in the implementation of the CryptoServer.

This roadmap is necessarily provisional. When some progress has been made, real dates (in green) and projected dates (in red) will be added. Dates are in YY-MM-DD format. (We are not unduly concerned about the Y2100 bug.)

Because CryptoServer is dependent upon functionality which does not yet exist in other XLattice components, this roadmap includes steps in the development of those components to the degree necessary to support the CryptoServer. References to such components look like node-0.0.1, which represents version 0.0.1 of XLattices node component.

CryptoServer tarballs (in zip format) are now being released regularly. All of the XLattice components used by the CryptoServer are current in CVS.
