As I'm updating and checking packages for r151018's release, I notice that
OpenSSL is rapidly approaching a 1.1.0 release. I visited their Release
Strategy page:
http://openssl.org/policies/releasestrat.html
And noticed that 1.0.2 is LTS until 2019. OTOH, 1.1.x will likely become LTS
for some x, and there's also LibreSSL...
I'm starting this thread to hear what the community has to say about where
OmniOS should go w.r.t. its OpenSSL release. I have internal customers too, of
course, but I'll engage them separately. We need to have an OpenSSL because
illumos requires one. We *could* do the SmartOS thing and keep our own
SUNW/OMNI*...() api set, though.
I can't guarantee what I'll ultimately decide, but knowing what people think
can't hurt.
Thanks,
Dan
