Yes I also have the same concern for the JDK implementation, if we are 
able to use the JBoss Web installation that Anil and Marcus are 
integrating with we gain all of the benefits of the work already 
implemented if not the same integration becomes required for the JDK server.

On the other hand however if the security subsystem worked with both 
JBoss Web and the JDK server then maybe it would make some of the 
testing that has been an issue in the past a lot easier.

Darran Lofthouse.

Considering customers like Mastercard, which have network devices for encryption and key management, etc., they will want everything to be able to work through that infrastructure, and not have to manage security differently for our console.
