It's a rant. As far as I remember he was referring to a single function that had an issue in gnutls and generalized it. His generalized claims were not true back then and are not true now. His claim about the given function was true and was fixed in later versions. I believe he got confused by the ASN.1 library API that uses strings to refer to positions on the PKIX1 schema, such as "PKIX1.GeneralTime". For those fixed size strings we use string functions, and this might confuse someone just doing grep on the code and not familiar with the api. regards, Nikos _______________________________________________ Help-gnutls mailing list Help-gnutls@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnutls
