Hi, PolarSSL can be made really small, by disabling modules. For example, detailed error reporting can be disabled with that flag in <polarssl/config.h>. We can always say that we demand error.c to be enabled, but I'm not sure how happy embedded developers would be with that decision. I'm pretty much ambivalent in this discussion and will follow the general opinion :). Adriaan
