     1= !MyProxyClient = 
    32The !MyProxyClient Python package has been developed as part of development activities for the [http://ndg.nerc.ac.uk/ NERC DataGrid] Security system.  This work has been supported over the past year (2007-2008) by [http://proj.badc.rl.ac.uk/ndg/wiki/TI12_Security/OMII-UK OMII-UK].

    54The implementation is based on the [http://www-new.mcs.anl.gov/fl/research/accessgrid/myproxy/myproxy.html myproxy_logon] script developed by Tom Uram of ANL.  Rather than binding to the [http://grid.ncsa.uiuc.edu/myproxy/ MyProxy] C libraries, it uses the M2Crypto Python OpenSSL library wrapper to make calls to a !MyProxy server following the [http://grid.ncsa.uiuc.edu/myproxy/protocol/ MyProxy protocol].

    7 ==== Version 1.0 26 April 2010 Release Notes ==== 
    8  * This version includes a new method `getTrustRoots` to support the ability to download the CA certificates for a given MyProxy server (command=7 - see: http://grid.ncsa.illinois.edu/myproxy/protocol/) 
     6== Releases == 
     7=== Version 1.1.0 2 June 2010 === 
     8 * added bootstrap capability to initialise client CA certificate set-up to trust the server's SSL certificate.

     10=== Version 1.0 26 April 2010 === 
     11 * This version includes a new method `getTrustRoots` to support the ability to download the CA certificates for a given !MyProxy server (command=7 - see: http://grid.ncsa.illinois.edu/myproxy/protocol/) 
    912 * 1.0 switches from M2Crypto to PyOpenSSL for its OpenSSL wrapper. 
    1013 * A put method is included as a stub only.  Unfortunately, the PyOpenSSL X.509 Extensions interface doesn't support the `proxyCertInfo` extension type needed for creating proxy certificates.
