Hi Alasdair,

My initial reaction is to point out that the NIST elliptic curves are
over finite fields, while the Cremona database contains elliptic curves
over the rational numbers.

I don't see why we couldn't have a database with the NIST recommended
elliptic curves available in Sage, though.


Best,
Alex
