Description: MessageSecurity requires a central repository to register service identies, manage grou pof sevices and store shared keys,a s well as provide a ticketing system to allow secure communication between parties (signing and optionally encryption services). The Key Distribution Server manages the ticketing system and stores shared keys between the Server itself and the registered servies. It may also store temporary group keys. This server is necessary for the implementation of https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/MessageSecurity Specification URL (additional information): https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/MessageSecurity#A_Key_Distribution_Server_in_Keystone
This was pulled out of Icehouse for a few reasons. For one, it wasn't going to be completed in time. There is also quite a bit of debate about where this will ultimately live. It looks like it will not ever be a part of Keystone (it might live in Barbican, or stand on it's own). Closing this as WONTFIX.
