Thanks for your reply.

We wanted to use JSS API in our Applet code to do digital signing. For this, we
are planning to do auto install the DLLs needed such as jss3.dll, libnspr4.dll,
libplc4.dll, libplsds4.dll, nss3.dll, ssl3.dll on the clients machines and use
the APIs to access the clients nestcape default repository cert7.db and key3.db
for the keys and certificate.

So, we are not going to modify the code of NSS/JSS Libraries. We are going to use
it as is.

For this, is it enough if we just simply say we are using JSS in our
documentation or do we have to download the source code of nss and jss into our
site and point to the url in a about dialog box or a link in our html pages.

In MPL License document, under section 3.4 "Intellectual Property Matters" (a)
Third party claims says about the LEGAL file, should we need to create a LEGAL
file. If so, is there any specific information need to go there. Can we get a
sample LEGAL file.

These are the main questions, we have.

Thanks
Krish.
