Dear all,

After Mark made the relevant comment about making sure functional features are actually integrated in the API either by text or by explicit issue, here is a summary of what I understand is in our API. Thanks for completing/commenting this functional landscape if something missing.

Key operations :
Key generation - issue-19
Key exchange
Key import/export - raw material format is issue-14
Key usual operations (cipher, verify, ...)
Key neutering - issue-8
Key cloning and sharing - issue-22
Generation of random value
Key query - no description in API and no issue
Management of Key Attributes - user attributes is issue-17


Key Attributes/parameters :
origin - issue-19 (completed by issue-21)
Validity dates - semantic is issue-16
Local ID local
GUID - issue-25
User Attributes - user attributes access by application is issue-17
Certificate or generic tokens - issue-15
Algorithms
Algorithm type Usage
Extractable/Or not
Temporarily/Permanent

In addition we have some design related issues (e.g. asynch versus synchronous usage, or ), but I do not classify it as functional feature issues as it is more a problem of choosing the best solution.

Thanks for commenting...

Regards,
Virginie
