Re: Dropping the MozNSS crypto bits from OpenLDAP



Hi Ludwig,

We have yet to even alpha 2.5, and then there will be betas and potential RCs. I'd say we're overall at least a year out from an official 2.5 release.

Hi Quannah,

not an objection to dropping it, but a question about timing.
We are using the openldap client library in 389-ds and rely on the fact
that they are linked to moznss. We are in the process to make our
implementation/deployment independent of which  crypto lib is used, but
we are not yet there.

What is the time frame of 2.5 ?

Regards,
Ludwig

Hi Jan,

Now that the Crypto Consolidation project has been dropped by Fedora
(<https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraCryptoConsolidation>), is there
any objection to OpenLDAP dropping the MozNSS work going forward
(OpenLDAP 2.5+)?  We already have noted we don't support people using
it, due to the security problems it creates, etc.

Thanks,
Quanah
