Attached is a summary of the process and a spreadsheet for recording results based on feedback from previous sessions and the ongoing discussions. This allows for each vendor to claim what is expected to work and for vendor-to-vendor testing results to be gathered in a form which is more easily reviewed. As we have a combination of testing that can be done it allows for recording claimed profile support for both KMIP 1.0 and KMIP 1.1 and test case support for both KMIP 1.0 and KMIP 1.1 and also includes the test cases from the two documents Bob Lockhart circulated which are the first step towards including test cases more closely matching profiles. There will be vendor testing which encompasses functionality beyond what is noted here given that we have a broader mix of capabilities but those won't be reported in any consolidated results and will be left to each of the vendors involved to note separately. I believe this reflects the consensus of the group and our discussions to date but if anyone feels differently please let me know so we can work through it. We have a busy two weeks ahead for this testing. Tony has volunteered to record the details and to handle the logistics of sending out vendor-to-vendor recording spreadsheets and collating the feedback which should also help speed up the process from previous years. Please read the process document and then fill in the capability register (all tabs) for each product involved in the interop testing including your contact details (if you are the responsible person for that product) and get this back to Tony via tony.cox@cryptsoft.com by COB tomorrow PST. The Cryptsoft C and Java servers have now been updated for the formal interop and are available for testing. Thanks, Tim.
