Subject: Italy: Yet another OpenSignature standards effort
http://opensignature.sourceforge.net/english.php These guys have concluded that Java applets are bad and that you should exclude the browser altogether by using something called URL Programming Interface, which in essens hosts a local web-server for handling the crypto and signature stuff. I believe this is similar to the Austrian scheme, although a bit less documented. Personally I think Java is good as a short-term solution but useless in the long-run as Microsoft would never support a Java-based standard. The need for accepting native and trusted code during browsing is also something that does not seem to be ideal. Anders R
