That doesn't help with the "normal" Firefox build. As you can see, unless NSS is built with "NSS_ECC_MORE_THAN_SUITE_B", it will disallow the creation of a signature (through this code path) with ECC regardless of the underlying implementation. Such is the grip of fear over the patents. -- dev-tech-crypto mailing list dev-tech-crypto@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-crypto
