Hi,
I'm brand new to open source so pardon any misgivings.
I've been working with Grizzly, which at our company is used for the REST
API Server. Recently, we had a requirement to enable Kerberos for Grizzly
NIO and found that the only out of the box solution, Apache CXF would not
work, thanks to CXF's "MessageContext" abstraction.
I worked on a standalone solution that does not use basic JAAS contructs to
enable Kerberos for Grizzly, by simply enabling the Filter. I also have
general purpose interface definitions for Principal and SecurityContext
that are needed here.
I would really like to contribute back to Grizzly, and think this would be
a helpful addition for those who seek security over Grizzly, specially
enterprise users - this solution, in my understanding, doesn't exist, and
would help others from reinventing the wheel.
How do I go about contributing this? Is there an existing JIRA I cannot
find? Or shall I just create a new one? Appreciate any help.
Regards,
Saurabh
