Version'ing #39

Closed bourdett closed 9 years ago

bourdett commented 10 years ago

How are we going to handle different versions of a platform? For example if an application runs on REHL 6 and REHL 7 which platform do that test on (Both, the newest?)

Should we add any wording to the PP to clarify this?

In here we can probably alter the AA or add an app note, asking for the testing to be on the LATEST platform: http://common-criteria.rhcloud.com/application/output/application.html#ATE_IND.1.2E

However -- platform vendors provide a stable ABI, so they can generically state the platform on which they run (saying "Windows" or "Red Hat Enterprise Linux" is fine).

Added App Note: The evaluator shall test the application on the most current fully patched version of the platform
