Where "such software" is gajim which was "using the Python OpenSSL bindings". I think the suggestion is that software using python-pycurl would not change if they were using openssl or gnutls. I don't understand how the GPL'd software is derived from openssl if it works interchangably with gnutls on the other side of pycurl. Can you explain?
