Point 1 of the proposal says ''Multiple NSS_LibraryInit() calls are allowed. Each call will get it's own context.'' Point 3 of the proposal says ''NSS_LibraryShutdown() can be called once per context. If NSS_LibraryShutdown is called a second time on a context, an error is returned.'' But point 1 also says ''NSS will keep a count of NSS_LibraryInit calls.'' Why is a count of those calls necessary if each call gets its own unique context? | Point 1 of the proposal says ''Multiple NSS_LibraryInit() calls are allowed. Each call will get it's own context.''

The count was an implementation detail. It no longer exists. it's been replaces with a list of active contexts. | |||
