I have previously submitted a largish patch for documentation around the
OpenSSL EC library. Unfortunately there seems little interest in it, and it
has been hanging around in RT for some while:

https://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2799  (username guest,
password guest)

This documentation is in the POD format used by OpenSSL so isn't ideal for
a direct conversion onto the wiki. However it seems a shame for it to be
inaccessible so I've published it onto your wikibooks site anyway. See the
following pages (and a number of pages linked from it):

https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/OpenSSL/EC

I hope its useful to some people. Since this has not been accepted by the
OpenSSL devs into the official distribution - use it at your own risk!!
