You write.....
"A couple points.
1. WAVE's Attestation Server combined with Utility Services makes possible Interoperable Platforms within a single trust Domain. But this is a CLOSED SYSTEM. To use your example, if you are registered with a Microsoft Domain you can ONLY download applications that are registered with the Microsoft Trust Domain. If there is a neat Trusted Application outside of MS Trust Domain that you yearn for, you are out of luck.
THERE IS NO FUTURE IN CLOSED SYSTEMS. (And there is NO FUTURE for WAVE's Attestation Servers in a CLOSED SYSTEM, because there is no compelling reason for Trust Domains to use them, when other competing Attestation Servers, become available.)
Of course, MS would LOVE to have its Trust Domain be the ONLY Trust Domain available for ALL Developers. That is to say, Have ALL developers Register with the MS Trust Domain. No doubt, Bill Gates is going to say to JAVA developers: Trust me! I can accommodate you, and your unique Security Protocols. When you want to upgrade, I have a wonderful new Microsoft OS with a big crypto library devoted to your every whim and demand."
SKS's Concept of TCG TPM's......

The correct concept is that the Java guys can store keys on the TPM a TPM is a key management technology,not yet a
secure application technology.
Yes Java can make calls to the TPM if the correct software is there and configured correctly.
My comment.........
Java developers using Java Security Protocols as well
as MSFT Developers using MSFT Security Protocols can
BOTH use the TPM to Store Keys.Wave's Attestation &
Key Management Servers can Attest to,Manage,Migrate
& Maintain TPM's & their associated Keys no matter
if the application is using Java JVE Keys or MSFT
MSCAPI Keys.......
Doma.
