Hi Just for people’s awareness, curl+gskit isn’t *quite* pining for the fjords yet.
There is an active community within IBM working with curl and gskit. Since gskit support was removed from mainline we have maintained a private fork of latest curl retaining the gskit support (you’ll have seen the odd PR coming in as a result of this work recently, e.g. from my colleague Andrew Kirillov). To come back to the topic of this thread, we are also therefore to an extent reliant on the ‘no TLS’ options remaining clean. For what it’s worth, and I do understand some of the history here - we are working to be ‘good citizens’ and keep the fork in a state that it would be useful to others again, and I would love to see this contributed back into main. However, for that to happen of course there would need to be commitment to a fully supported/open build process being available. Making that happen isn’t trivial unfortunately – and I’m NOT in a position to make any promises on behalf of IBM - but I will continue to advocate for that course from within IBM, and I’m happy to be at least an initial point of contact if anyone wants to discuss.

I have actively tried to get someone to either work on or pay for work to get the GSkit support back and done proper, without success. You would think that perhaps IBM for example would like that, but apparently not enough anyway. -- / daniel.haxx.se || https://rock-solid.curl.dev -- Unsubscribe: https://lists.haxx.se/mailman/listinfo/curl-library Etiquette: https://curl.se/mail/etiquette.html Unless otherwise stated above: IBM United Kingdom Limited Registered in England and Wales with number 741598 Registered office: Building C, IBM Hursley Office, Hursley Park Road, Winchester, Hampshire SO21 2JN
