84 <h2>Current actions/ToDo</h2>
85 <p>
86 The roadmap is only a very rough description of the
87 next steps. Here you can find more detailed informations
88 what's actually going on.
89 </p>
90 <ul>
91 <li>Integration of a software engine with new configuration
92 options - engine_usage and key_store (Julia)</li>
93 <li>Rewrite the OpenSSL shell usage and move it towards
94 a normal CLI usage - use OpenSSL's engine section (Michael)</li>
95 <li>System bootstrap workflows (database init etc.) (Martin Bartosch)</li>
96 <li>Basic PKI workflows (request, issuance, CRL issuance) (Martin Bartosch)</li>
97 <li>Shibboleth support</li>
98 <li>Command line client (Martin Bartosch)</li>
99 <li>Web Interface: Mason (Martin Bartosch)</li>
100 <li>SCEP Interface (Martin Bartosch)</li>
101 </ul>
103 <h2>Wishlist/Sometimes maybe</h2>
105 These topics might be addressed in the future.
106 </p>
107 <ul>
108 <li>Native XS implementation of Certificate Issuance (instead of
109 using the OpenSSL command line interface).</li>
110 <li>Workflow configuration history (pending workflow instances
111 remember the configuration that was active when the WF instance was
112 created).</li>
113 <li>Cron-like time based event trigger (either integrated in the server or triggered by the CLI client)</li>
114 <li>Packaging for various Unix platforms</li>
115 </ul>
