Name: Network Security Services (NSS)
URL: http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/

This directory includes a copy of NSS's libssl from the CVS repo at:
  :pserver:anonymous@cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/cvsroot

The snapshot was updated to the CVS tag: NSS_3_12_9_RTM

Patches:

  * Next protocol negotiation support.
    patches/nextproto.patch
    http://codereview.chromium.org/415005

  * Commenting out a couple of functions because they need NSS symbols
    which may not exist in the system NSS library.
    patches/versionskew.patch

  * Send empty renegotiation info extension instead of SCSV unless TLS is
    disabled.
    patches/renegoscsv.patch
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=549042

  * Cache the peer's intermediate CA certificates in session ID, so that
    they're available when we resume a session.  Add certificates to
    ss->ssl3.peerCertChain in the right order.
    patches/cachecerts.patch
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=606049

  * Add Snap Start support
    patches/snapstart.patch
    patches/snapstart2.patch
    http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-snapstart-00

  * Add the SSL_PeerCertificateChain function
    patches/peercertchain.patch

  * Add OCSP stapling support
    patches/ocspstapling.patch

  * Add support for client auth with native crypto APIs on Mac and Windows
    patches/clientauth.patch
    ssl/sslplatf.c

  * Don't send a client certificate when renegotiating if the peer does not
    request one. This only happened if the previous key exchange algorithm
    was non-RSA.
    patches/clientauth.patch
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=616757

Apply the patches to NSS by running the patches/applypatches.sh script.  Read
the comments at the top of patches/applypatches.sh for instructions.

The ssl/bodge directory contains files taken from the NSS repo that we required
for building libssl outside of its usual build environment.
