The NSS codebase currently contains [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic_curve_cryptography Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC)] algorithms donated by Sun Labs, however they are turned off by default in the builds script. In this release we will implement the ECC TLS cipher suites ([https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=236245 Bugzilla bug 236245]) and enable NSS to use third-party tokens that implement ECC. We have not yet decided if we will enable all ECC functionality in this release. | The NSS codebase currently contains [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic_curve_cryptography Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC)] algorithms donated by Sun Labs, however they are turned off by default in the builds script.
