Hi Nir, Josefsson & Pegourie,

As per section 5.2 server should send only "Supported Point Format" extensions 
in server hello message. And it doesn't require to send "Supported Elliptic 
Curve" extensions. Because of this if server is supporting only few Curves and 
if it receives unsupported Elliptic curve in client certificate message, then 
server might not be able to continue the handshake.
This makes (D)TLS server should mandatory implement all the curves mentioned in 
"NamedCurve". But I feel mandating (D)TLS server to support all NamedCurve is 
not feasible, as in future if new named curves are defined then updating legacy 
server is not easy. And also constraint (D)TLS server generally doesn't support 
all the curves.
Please provide your suggestion on this. If my understanding is wrong, please 
correct me.

Regards,
Ashok
