No esoteric discussion or flame war required. :) Unless OpenSSL is a standard part of all platforms we'll be shipping on, then we have trouble. Drizzle is (or will be) a mix of GPL-licensed code where the copyright is held by Sun and GPL-licensed code where the copyright is held by third parties. While Sun might not object, other parties may. Let's be good about our licensing policies and respect the letter and intent of licenses. > However... > > Anybody checked to see if GNU TLS has a decent md5 impl? This would be preferable. :) libgcrypt provides the md5 implementation that GNUTLS relies on. ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libgcrypt -- Cheers! --zak _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
