After starting work in February 2013, I am so excited that just 14 months later, our recently formed OASIS technical committee has our first standard revision under the OASIS banner out for final public review.
I am proud of the hard work everyone put forth into this new version of the standard, particularly so of our editors who all integrated changes and fixes with nary a complaint.
PKCS#11 v 2.40 is just what we need to move this cryptographic standard forward into the future.
I'm excited about the new work we're starting on the next revision already!
Check it out and let us know what you think.
Thank you!
Valerie, co-chair OASIS PKCS11 TC
[Update July 2014: Not sure why I said "Final"... some minor mistakes were found, we're cleaning them up and should have another review out shortly!]
