Description Justin Spadea CLA 2011-10-14 16:18:43 EDT 
Right now the DD editor will encrypt passwords using TeaEncrypter.

The Java runtime doesn't support encryption yet, so it cannot decrypt the password. There are two choices:

   a) Copy TeaEncrypter into the Java runtime and use it to decrypt passwords when necessary.
   b) Modify the DD editor to stop encrypting passwords.

'a' will increase the test effort. If we go with 'b' then 'a' should be done in 1.0.
Comment 1 Lisa Lasher CLA 2011-11-07 13:25:11 EST 
this has been deferred to 1.0.  Encryption has been removed from the editor.
Comment 2 Matt Heitz CLA 2013-01-03 14:43:32 EST 
Setting the target milestone to Future for bugs that won't be addressed in 0.8.2.
