Hi , I want to offload the operations done in fundamental ECC (all curves) to a hardware to improve the performance. After going through the openssl-1.0.1e code i found out that there are some code contributed by Sun Microsystems (now Oracle). A little search on internet revealed that Certicom holds around 120 patents on ECC.
So if i go on and change the openssl code to offload ECC operations, will i be breaking any license? I did not got any specific answers to this questions, so i am asking it in this list. -- Thanks Ankur ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
