What is this page for?

This page contains a table of Java security libraries and indicates which security features each library supports.

The plan is to use this information to work backwards to create a 'decision tree' which will allow Java developers to decide which security libraries would be the most suitable for their requirements.

It is at a very early stage, and will almost certainly contain many mistakes and omissions. Please feel free to correct these yourself, or contact Psiinon to correct them on your behalf.
