The 1.2.0-test tarball IS NOT FIPS VALIDATED.  You cannot make a
FIPS-validated module from it.

When the 1.2.0 validation occurs, it will be announced here, the
certificate will be posted on the NIST's website, the full validated
tarball will be made available, and the certificate's Administration
and User manuals will be released, including the correct HMAC for the
validated tarball.

Until then, you have to wait -- just like everyone else.

This is likely a Nortel-internal political debate, so I'm going to
make it absolutely clear:  The module is not available at this time,
because it is still in the validation process.  If you have an
application that requires FIPS validation that is designed to link
with OpenSSL, you must wait to release it until the validated module
is released.

The 1.2.0-test tarball can be used to test the functionality of the
fully-validated 1.2.0 module, thus making it possible to build and
test and debug your application -- but the final FIPS-validated RTM
build cannot be built at this time.

We do not know how long it's going to take for the validation to
occur.  When it is complete and fully-validated, Steve Marquess of the
Open Source Software Institute will post the announcement here.
