Title: RE: [ebxml-msg] What Next?
David,
I'm
unclear why encapsulation is necessary to encrypt entire messages, especially if
a payload item is already encrypted. It seems SSL would provide sufficient
encryption of an entire message, including MIME headers.
I
could see using S/MIME of OpenPGP to digitally sign an entire message,
but SSL should be sufficient for encryption
purposes.
Am I
missing something?

We need to consider Encapsulation again. This has a
number of potential uses:
Encryption (encrypt
the entire document including MIME headers)
Forwarding/Multi-hop (especially with the identified problems with
Signatures)
Third-Party Processing (Intermediate Timestamps...)
Chunking (sending
extremely large files in pieces)
I am sure there will be others.
We used this concept in the UCC Interop test to do encryption
and it worked
quite well. See document
attached.

[ebxml-msg] What Next?
Team,
I hope you have all
had a pleasant break over the last couple of
weeks. As the title says what do we do next? It is up to
you, but here are
some ideas to start with.
1 - we MUST capture, answer and resolve any question and
issues during the 3
month public review of version
2.0
2 - The IIC TC would like to produce a conformance
test/suite/documentation
for version 2.0, they will
obvious need help from us to do this.
3 - The Business
interface layer has never been written - do we need it?
4 - A primer/introduction to the messaging service
5 - A document to describe the minimum implementation. This may
be linked
to the IIC TC point above.
Question: - Do we still have outstanding requirements that
still need to be
addressed? i.e. a definable business
need for them.
Over to all of you
for comments.
