I guess I had a bad understanding of what botan was in the context of
SQLite. I didn't realize it was a general purporse crypto library. This
certainly would be a good general addition to ooRexx, particularly if it
meant we could provide SSL support. I do have one concern about whether
there are any US export concerns with distributing ooRexx with crypto
support. I suspect that the botan people have already dealt with that
issue, be we need to check on it. Maybe we really should consider building
a separate dll with some suitable API wrappers for ooRexx.
