+ Corrected handling of ECC certificates, there where
+ several small issues with the handling of such
+ certificates in the ssl and public_key application. Now
+ ECC signed ECC certificates shall work and not only RSA
+ signed ECC certificates.</p>

+ Check that the certificate chain ends with a trusted ROOT
+ CA e.i. a self-signed certificate, but provide an option
+ partial_chain to enable the application to define an
+ intermediat CA as trusted.</p>

+ Application upgrade (appup) files are corrected for the
+ following applications: </p>
+ <p>
+ <c>asn1, common_test, compiler, crypto, debugger,
+ dialyzer, edoc, eldap, erl_docgen, et, eunit, gs, hipe,

+ percept, public_key, reltool, runtime_tools, ssh,
+ syntax_tools, test_server, tools, typer, webtool, wx,
+ xmerl</c></p>
+ <p>
+ A new test utility for testing appup files is added to

+ Moved elliptic curve definition from the crypto
+ NIF/OpenSSL into Erlang code, adds the RFC-5639 brainpool
+ curves and makes TLS use them (RFC-7027).</p>
+ <p>
+ Thanks to Andreas Schultz</p>

+ Unicode adaptations</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11620</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Added option honor_cipher_order. This instructs the
+ server to prefer its own cipher ordering rather than the
+ client's and can help protect against things like BEAST
+ while maintaining compatability with clients which only
+ support older ciphers. </p>
+ <p>
+ Thanks to Andrew Thompson for the implementation, and
+ Andreas Schultz for the test cases.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11621</p>

+ Thanks to Andreas Schultz.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11634</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Some function specs are corrected or moved and some edoc
+ comments are corrected in order to allow use of edoc.
+ (Thanks to Pierre Fenoll)</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11702</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Correct clean up of certificate database when certs are
+ inputed in pure DER format.The incorrect code could cause
+ a memory leek when certs where inputed in DER. Thanks to
+ Bernard Duggan for reporting this.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11733</p>

+ Avoid next protocol negotiation failure due to incorrect
+ option format.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11760</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Handle v1 CRLs, with no extensions and fixes issues with
+ IDP (Issuing Distribution Point) comparison during CRL
+ validation. </p>
+ <p>
+ Thanks to Andrew Thompson</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11761</p>
+ </item>

+ <p>
+ Server now ignores client ECC curves that it does not
+ support instead of crashing. </p>
+ <p>
+ Thanks to Danil Zagoskin for reporting the issue and
+ suggesting a solution.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11780</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>

+ Handle SNI (Server Name Indication) alert
+ unrecognized_name and gracefully deal with unexpected
+ alerts. </p>
+ <p>
+ Thanks to Masatake Daimon for reporting this.</p>
