 I'm happy for my contributions to be licensed under GPL2.  I have no
objection to it being relicensed under a future GPL version, nor to the
exemption to link to OpenSSL.


To clarify on the relicensing issue (point 2 above), I'd prefer the
relicensing clause not to be present, though I wouldn't object should the
clause ultimately be included.

Thanks
