[Fiware-wpa] Fwd: Submission of FI-WARE Deliverable D.8.1.2 Open Specifications (WP8 - Security Chapter)

[Juanjo Hierro]

  FYI, please find attached the official submission of the FI-WARE GE Open Specifications from the Security chapter.

  I would like to call your attention regarding the issue with the IdM GE.    Make sure that you are not facing a similar situation in your chapter/WP.

  Best regards,

-- Juanjo

Dear all,

  This is the official submission of D.8.1.2 Open Specifications (WP8 - Security Chapter).   You can download the corresponding file from the following link:


  *   https://forge.fi-ware.eu/docman/view.php/7/2504/D.8.1.2+FI-WARE+GE+Open+Specifications+-+Security+vfinal.docx


  Note that the FI-WARE GE Open Specifications are public, therefore you can download the first of the files without logging in FusionForge.

  As you know, the FI-WARE GE Open Specifications are constantly updated on the FI-WARE public wiki.   You can refer to contents of the public wiki for the most up-to-date contents of public documentation associated to the FI-WARE project.

  We accompany the public open specs above with the following API specifications of the Identity Management GE provided by Deutsche Telekom AG (DT) which are still currently kept private by DT (therefore, you can only download once you have logged in your account in FusionForge):

  *   https://forge.fi-ware.eu/docman/view.php/7/2503/IdM+GE+by+DT+-+GCP+API+documentation_v0-3.docx

  Regarding this API specification of the IdM GE provided by DT, it is unclear to us whether DT is delivering the IdM GE API specification as a public and royalty-free specification or not.   Note that part of the RESTful API to be supported by the IdM GE may comply with some standard specifications (e.g., RESTful API definition for OAuth 2.0), but there are other parts for which such a correspondence with a standard may not exist.  Those parts definitively need to be specified and be made public and royalty-free as FI-WARE GE Open Specifications.   Consequently:

  *   we have formulated that question to DT and we are still waiting for their answer
  *   we have informed DT that if a FI-WARE GE API is not delivered to be made public and royalty-free, we consider this an infringement of the contract, this unless the EC does have a different interpretation
  *   since we haven't received any response from DT yet, we cannot release the IdM GE API specifications publicly and we are providing it private, in case that reviewers wish to carry out a review of the specs while a definitive answer arrives from DT

  The above has been made in sync with Thales, as leader of the WP.

  Last but not least, it is also unclear what the situation is regarding the Identity Management GE implementation provided by NSN.  Concretely:

  *   it is unclear whether NSN will align their API specs with those specified by DT
  *   it is also unclear whether NSN will provide their API specs as public and royalty-free

  We are also working together with Thales, as leader of the WP, to clarify the situation regarding the Identity Management GE implementation provided by NSN.

  Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any question.

  Best regards,

-- Juanjo Hierro
