I assume this is for testing purposes only: https://github.com/ozoneplatform/owf/blob/master/certs/ca.ke... :-)

Indeed.

Caveat: While browsing repositories you can press 't' and fuzzy-search filenames.

Check out their website as well (which is buried in the project's readme): http://owfgoss.org/

My buddy has been raving about this for years. He uses it extensively for geospatial stuff for the Intel community. I'm stoked to finally get a hold of it.

For those curious about the role the NSA played in this framework:

Thanks. I was reading through the github readme going 'Well, that's cool... but why did they build this?'. Seemed to me before understanding why they needed it/built it, that it would have been time better spent working on a new crypto engine :).

It's great that this was open sourced. Quite impressive what you've accomplished. For me to use it I'd also have to pay ExtJS $2500 and/or some combination of a fixed fee with royalty rights which I just can not do.

That hopefully will change. "At the Dec 2012 OWF GOSS board, the board agreed to a 6-month re-factoring effort which would re-implement using OSGi on the back end and eliminate the dependency on ExtJS for the front-end. This work will be done on GitHub and will be completely transparent to the community."

When I was working with this (2+ years ago), it was mostly for integration with databases in DIA's GCCS-J program. Honestly, for the amount of data they need to deal with, it just didn't work (common operational picture stuff).

Curious any OWF developers have a connector they can release to use NSA developed Accumulo NoSQL? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_Accumulo

Looks like the project is specifically mentioned in the ndaa. That's enough to peak my interest.
