IDS Broker Specification requires installation and execution of containers #54

Open SebastianOpriel opened 1 year ago

Is this a copy/paste mistake or shall the Broker be equipped with AppStore features in the future? https://github.com/International-Data-Spaces-Association/IDS-G/blob/efaf241d1c9ac5dc94f56d29a9b479660989efd2/Components/MetaDataBroker/IDSMetaDataBrokerRequirements/ConnectorRequirements.md?plain=1#L11

Please see also the other lines below of the referenced one.

That's indeed a very tough one. I just checked a local copy of the certification criteria excel (might be outdated...) and found this item under the Connector criteria:

Operating System OS_01 Container support Connector supports installation and execution of containers.

Looks to me as this is not a only demanding the container support for an IDS Broker but for all Connectors. Still, I share your doubts whether this makes sense for the certification.

(By the way, this also applies to the following entries, both in the BrokerRequirements markdown and the Connector certification criteria table.)

Can someone from the Certification WG take a look?
