Hello Rainer, I found out that the patch that I used in order to connect apache server with SSL using our HSM to hold the Private RSA and Certificate already exists in bugzilla at:
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42687 We found out that this patch works well. We would like to insert it in to the open source code. What is the status of this patch and what can I do in order to insert the patch to open source code?

Yes, mod_ssl for the Apache web server 2.x is part of the Apache web server project.
