Brian,

The contract (contract-07) with OpenSSL is for 
jds/gnome/file-manager and jds/gnome/libraries.
How does lynx fit into those components?  It sure
does not seem to from my perspective.  I understand
that the JDS consolidation has a contract with
the ON consolidation.  However, it does not have
one for this particular component.  Unless Darren
speaks up and says otherwise I believe that this
new component needs a contract.

Thanks,

John
