Actually that's not an issue because we don't ship that code in our NSS release since it's never been integrated into the NSS builds;). Our Firefox team must have their own copy.

At some point we should make it a issue.... I'd really love to loose libpkix;).

    The agreement we've had is that is 2 release prior. The biggest
    issue is
    a major change like this was not announced on this list and all the
    stake holders were not brought in.

    But that is currently water under the bridge. I'm in a real pickle
    because of this, and I'm just looking for approval to ship our ESR
    with
    the old NSS. At this point it's really can I ship it with the old
    NSS,
    or do I have to wait 8 months to ship ESR. I really don't have any
    other
    choice (our FIPS plan is such that I can no longer change NSS version
    until 2022).

    My proposed plan going forward is to pick up NSPR 4.32, leave NSS
    3.67
    (patch our ESR to accept 3.69) and backport any security patches
    to NSS
    3.68.x into our NSS 3.67 and resync at the next ESR.

    What I need is is this an acceptible plan for mozilla, or will we
    be in
    trouble for this.
