I am sending this to those on the Apache documentation list who have replied to
emails related to SSL documentation (I am also copying the list to catch others
that may be interested in this offer from Symantec/VeriSign). Here are a few
comments I've seen about the existing Apache HTTPD documentation:
* "Most of ssl/ssl_faq.xml is rubbish"
* "both the FAQ and the howto docs could stand to be completely
scrapped. Unfortunately, SSL is one of the topics about which we seem to know
the least."
* "If the current arrangement of that doc or set of docs doesn't make
sense, let's scrap it and start over. Most of that prose is a decade old, and
was written by someone who, while a genius in the field, didn't have English as
his first language."
* "I'm a bit of a stickler for deciding what the scope of our
documentation is, and then not straying too far outside of that. The scope of
our docs is the Apache HTTP Server and how to configure it. While the theory of
SSL itself intersects with configuring mod_ssl, they are separate topics."
* "I think that the biggest problem in the past with the contributions
has been twofold - one, the format made it difficult to integrate into the
docs. (Translation: I'm basically lazy.) Two, many of us who are most active on
the documentation are completely ignorant of SSL, and so feel unqualified to
review any SSL content."
Symantec (previously VeriSign/Thawte/GeoTrust) is willing to take on - for free
- the rewriting of the SSL-related content for Apache HTTPD, but it is
important to us that this work ends up being useful and valuable to the Apache
community, and is not just a make-work project. We will do this in a
CA-independent manner - we do not seek any advantage here, we just want to make
it easier for Apache HTTPD users to understand what they need to know when
implementing SSL (and 100% of them will do so, at some point). We expect to
leverage our skills around writing/publishing meaningful content, along with
the rich set of experiences we have from working with so many Apache HTTPD
users as customers (e.g., what problems end up in our Customer Support that
could be easily be fixed with some Apache documentation?).
To that end, I will followup this email with a meeting request for Monday,
April 23, at 1:00-1:30 pm Pacific. This will be a short conf call with any of
those in Apache that have an interest in the SSL topic. The main goals for
that call are:
* Understand the scope of the project
* Understand who from the Apache community we should work with
* Understand Apache's timeframe for getting the rewritten documentation
done
Thanks...
