Hi Devs:
Hubert Le Van Gong and I are working on an implementation of an OAuth
policy enforcement point and token services, as extensions to the
OpenSSO project.
During the course of our development, it became apparent that we will
need client-side support for OAuth, to allow client-side OAuth digital
signatures to be created for outgoing JAX-RS requests.
I'd like to propose I create a branch of Jersey project to implement two
extensions:
1. A Jersey client filter that implements the OAuth authentication in
the HTTP Authorization header, basically following the functionality of
HTTPBasicAuthFilter.
2. The OAuth digital signature library, which can generate a JAR file
that will be used by the OAuth authentication filter, as well as the
OpenSSO policy enforcement points and/or token services.
Please let me know if this can go forward, and if so, how you'd prefer
me to branch to accommodate these.
Thanks,
Paul
