Hi Guys,

What about adopting OpenBSD's libressl? I was expecting it to take a
long time to be compatible but from my uneducated point of view it
looks like they did an incredible job. I think everything on OpenBSD
uses it.

I was running OpenBSD until I put FreeBSD 12.2 on a new box, so I
haven't been looking at for a year or so.

Does anybody know if this is a viable option? Can we just link against
libressl or is it (much) more involved than that?
