Sun is promising not to sue people for patent infringement for using Sun's
code as provided in the OpenSSL library, provided that the people who don't
want to be sued comply with a list of conditions:
(1) they promise not to sue Sun for infringing any of their own patents which
might cover the use of the donated code
(2) don't modify Sun's code as provided by Sun, don't use only parts of the
donated code, and don't remove the license text from the code.
Doesn't this exclude it from being used in OpenSSL, since it violates the
license?
