+
+For now, we stick to NIST P-256 because: it's simple and easy to configure;
+it avoids any patent issues that might bite redistributors; despite events in
+the news and concerns over curve choices, we're not cryptographers, we're not
+pretending to be, and this is "good enough" to be better than no support,
+protecting against most adversaries. Given another year or two, there might
+be sufficient clarity about a "right" way forward to let us make an informed
+decision, instead of a knee-jerk reaction.
+
+Longer-term, we should look at supporting both various named curves and
+external files generated with "openssl ecparam", much as we do for init_dh().
+We should also support "none" as a value, to explicitly avoid initialisation.
+
+Patches welcome.
