	    Integrate elliptic curve contribution from Andreas
	    Schultz </p>
          <p>
	    In order to be able to support elliptic curve cipher
	    suites in SSL/TLS, additions to handle elliptic curve
	    infrastructure has been added to public_key and crypto.</p>
          <p>
	    This also has resulted in a rewrite of the crypto API to
	    gain consistency and remove unnecessary overhead. All OTP
	    applications using crypto has been updated to use the new
	    API.</p>
          <p>
	    Impact: Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) offers
	    equivalent security with smaller key sizes than other
	    public key algorithms. Smaller key sizes result in
	    savings for power, memory, bandwidth, and computational
	    cost that make ECC especially attractive for constrained
	    environments.</p>

	    Added the functionality so that the verification fun will
	    be called when a certificate is considered valid by the
	    path validation to allow access to each certificate in
	    the path to the user application. Also try to verify
	    subject-AltName, if unable to verify it let the
	    application verify it.</p>

            The documentation is now built with open source tools
            (xsltproc and fop) that exists on most platforms. One
            visible change is that the frames are removed.</p>

            X509 certificate handling has been extended and improved
            as a result of more extensive testing of both the ssl
            and public_key application. Even more extensions of the
            certificate handling is yet to be implemented.</p>
