+This directory contains colliding X.509 certificates for different
+identities, from:
+
+http://www.win.tue.nl/hashclash/TargetCollidingCertificates/
+
+The certificates are used by a simple self-test script,
+rsa-md5-collision, that check to make sure that GnuTLS reject both
+certificate chains.
+
+The file mbox contain mail exchanges with the authors where they agree
+to release the certificates under a permissive license, that allow the
+files to be included here.
