Subject: Re: [Fwd: Java 1.1 signing jar file]
JDK 1.1 doesn't have a hook into a third party certificate provider,
that's correct. We are working on getting that set up. Right now,
people can experiment with Java signatures by creating and using
certificates that they create using the "javakey" utility. We are
working hard on the rest of the equation - the Java support needed for
certificate requests and certificate management, and the business
relations with the CAs so that they will support Java DSA
certificates.
