It is a bit early. OpenSSL 0.9.9 is not yet released. I wish OpenSSL releases were more frequent, and each added fewer features, allowing features to be released as they mature, this would also reduce pressure to add features to stable releases (which occasionally break binary compatibility, and lead to vendors back-porting fixes rather than deploying the next patch level of the stable release). While Firefox should ideally be developing and testing PSK now, without stable libraries to use in servers and browsers, we can't yet expect anything to be released. -- /"\ ASCII RIBBON NOTICE: If received in error, \ / CAMPAIGN Victor Duchovni please destroy and notify X AGAINST IT Security, sender.
