[security-dev 00025]: DTLS implementation

[Christian Uebber]

Hello,

so far Java is lacking easily usable support for secure UDP traffic.  
The OpenSSL guys have almost finished their implementation of Datagram  
Transport Layer Security which provides exactly the latter. DTLS is  
well defined (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4347) and already well  
tested to a considerable extend, as many parts of TLS (over TCP) could  
be reused.

For additional reference see: http://crypto.stanford.edu/~nagendra/papers/dtls.pdf

Is anybody already working on this for Java DatagramSockets? I'd be  
interested in doing the work. Integration into and reuse of the  
existing JSSE code would also be my preferred way to go.

Let me now if you're interested and I'll check with my University for  
backup.
