Project OpenPTK is an open source User Provisioning Toolkit. The project is hosted at java.net in the Identity Management community. Project OpenPTK exposes API's, Web Services, HTML Taglibs, JSR-168 Portlets with user self-service and administration examples. The architecture supports several pluggable back-end services including Sun's Identity Manager (SPML), Databases (JDBC) and LDAPv3 (JNDI).

Crypto package and data encryption feature

A Crypto package was created for Release 2.0 which initially supports Password Based Encrtption (PBE). The Framework has also been updated to support the encryption of data within the XML configuration file.

Development of release 1.2 started

The team started developing release 1.2 to meet demand. This version is based on 1.1 and is focused on delivering Password Management features.

New Download Page

The Download page for source code and pre-build war/zip files has been created using the wiki site. The new page is designed make it easier for the community to get access to Project OpenPTK.

Designing 2.0

The team has responded to the community. A new release is being designed and prototyped. The focus is on more flexibility related to connecting with "back-end" Services (now implemented as Operations) and new "front-end" Services (like RESTful Web Services). We're documenting the architecture and new features as they are "checked in" to SVN.
