In my opinion it is not advocating if you throw in your opinion when
beeing asked for. I agree that NSS is definitely very far advanced in
terms of what you can do with security using SW only (and yes: there are
interfaces for using HW solutions transparently built in). In some of the
aspects NSS seems to me as more advanced than OpenSSL.

My problem is that some of the softwares (in fact most from the volume
point of view) use OpenSSL. And as I am a selfish man I primarily look
after solving my own problem.

Having said that: Nothing would speak about choosing the middle layer (com
tier) to be used in such a way that NSS could plug in easily. It is just
not my primary focus at the moment :-) (maybe it should be).
