the ``people'' I am talking about were other projects. If OpenSSL was
able to relices under a 3-clause BSD, there would be little need for
GNUtls.

I doubt any code from OpenSSL is finding its way into GNUtls for the
simple reason is that it all has the 4-clause taint to it. Of course, I
do not know for certain as I am on neither team.
