  Description     : load and manipulate Java KeyStore (JKS) data without a JVM

A pure python Java KeyStore file parser, including private/secret key
decryption. Can read JKS, JCEKS, BKS and UBER (BouncyCastle) key
stores. The best way to utilize a certificate stored in a jks file up
to this point has been to use the java keytool command to transform to
pkcs12, and then openssl to transform to pem.

This is better:

 * no security concerns in passwords going into command line
   arguments, or unencrypted files being left around no dependency on
 * a JVM





This should easily find into Python Module Team maintenance, since its
pure Python with a setup.py.
