Common Criteria

[JamesElstone]

Hi All,

Does anybody knows if there are plans to put FreeBSD through Common Criteria assurance evaluation / assessment?

Thanks,

James.

Based on previous discussions, the answer is: no. Reason: it costs money, and gain is very little for the FreeBSD project.

I tried reading about Common Criteria and was assaulted with abbreviations. What is it (use whole words please)?

Hmm, I find the Wikipedia article on Common Criteria readable. Yes, there are lots of TLA's, but many of them are explained.
