Dear all, please find below a copy of the notification of the forecoming XAdES-CAdES remote interoperability event organized by ETSI CTI.

No need to emphasize how convenient it would be for those subscribers of of this list directly involved in the implementation of the UBL XAdES profile, to participate in order to actually meet with other XAdES implementers and test your XAdES tools. Past XAdES remote events have proved very fruitful for participants that have had the occasion of meeting together and deeply discuss on the most relevant issues of XAdES specification, as well as of raising suggestions to the standardization committee to impact the forecoming standardization process itself. Participants may bring their signed UBL documents with enveloped or dettached XAdES signatures to the plugtest event, and directly check the interoperability in terms of XAdES signatures with other XAdES providers out there....

Should you have any comment or question, do not hesitate in contacting Edwige Poinssot or Laurent Velez.

Best regards

Juan Carlos.

PSD: Please note that I am currently on holidays until first days of September.

---> NOTIFICATION

Dear all,

ETSI's Centre for Testing and Interoperability (CTI) is organizing two new remote Plugtests(tm) events for the advanced electronic signature techniques, XAdES and CAdES. The events will run in parallel from 25th October to 5th November 2010 and are open to ETSI members and non-members.

The XAdES event aims at conducting interoperability test cases on XAdES signatures: these will include a set of specific test cases related to XAdES v1.3.2 and to the latest version of the XAdES v1.4.1 specification. The CAdES event will involve interoperability tests on CAdES v1.7.4 and the new v1.8.1 implementations. Both events will have an extended test coverage of the specifications and will include testing signatures evolution, simulating real life situations. All information relating to this event is available via the event website which you may access via the link below:

This is a remote event and each participating company will be able to upload and download the signatures and verifications from the dedicated portal. The portal is reachable via this link http://xades-portal.etsi.org

A mailing list has also been set up and you will find details on how to join this list and participate in the technical discussions via this link:

If you have any questions or need any further information please do not hesitate to contact me and I will be very happy to help. Best regards Edwige
