JSR 400 (Java SE 25): JEP Proposed to Target: 470: PEM Encodings of Cryptographic Objects (Preview)

[Iris Clark]

The following JEP with scope "SE" has been proposed to target JDK 25:

    470: PEM Encodings of Cryptographic Objects (Preview)
         https://openjdk.org/jeps/470

    Summary: Introduce an API for encoding objects that represent
    cryptographic keys, certificates, and certificate revocation lists into
    the widely-used Privacy-Enhanced Mail (PEM) transport format, and for
    decoding from that format back into objects.  This is a preview API.

The announced deadline for feedback to jdk-dev is Tue 27 May 17:00 UTC:

    https://mail.openjdk.org/pipermail/jdk-dev/2025-May/010117.html

If there are no unresolved objections at that time, then the JEP will be moved
to the Targeted state, indicating that the feature is expected to appear in
the specified release of the JDK Project.  For more information about states,
see the JEP Process document:
