This document was used for product export control filing.  For
that purpose, it is fine to declare more than what NSS actually
has, hence the note.

That document is quite accurate for NSS 3.11.x.  The only
exceptions I noticed are:
1. In Firefox, only three elliptic curves are supported (NIST
P-256, P-384, and P-521 curves).
2. The obsolete FORTEZZA SSL cipher suites have been
removed.

I'm interested in seeing TLS 1.2 implemented in NSS, but it's not
as little work as you said.  We may also need to implement TLS
1.1 at the same time because TLS doesn't have a way to for a
client to announce that it supports TLS 1.2 and 1.0, but not 1.1.

SHA-1 in TLS 1.0 is used in two places:
- In conjunction with MD5 in the PRF
- in HMAC-SHA-1

We only implemented TLS 1.0 (RFC 2246).  We haven't implemented
TLS 1.1 (RFC 4346) and TLS 1.2 (RFC 5246).  Are you referring
to the RFCs that specify the AES and ECC cipher suites for
TLS?

Certigna met our request to post and translate the relevant portions
of their CPS. There has been very little resulting discussion.

I have once again reviewed the letter of confirmation from the National 
Communications Authority and Microsec has demonstrated compliance to 
ETSI's requirements according to the letter.


In my option there are no outstanding questions and I want to thank 
István for his very positive cooperation!

The internal document for code signing should have been made part of the 
CP/CPS. Apart from that I've not seen anything of concern.


Unfortunately my knowledge in the French language is not sufficient 
enough in order to understand the CPS. Preferable we should be able to 
review (and understand) the CPS in its entirety, however I don't feel 
this to be a reason at this stage to question their inclusion after they 
complied to our requests from the first round.

I note no outstanding issues, and recommend approval.

I'd like to see a photo of how the security tape is wound through the
paper translation, but that's just a matter of personal curiosity. :)
