ATTENTION: Please wake up!
OpenSSL today enters into source tree freeze state in order to be prepared for
the forthcoming OpenSSL 0.9.2 release next Monday (March 15th). We'll now try
to commit only bugfixes and cleanups until the release.
So, IT'S NOW YOUR TURN! When you've still not tried the current development
version, but nevertheless want to make sure OpenSSL 0.9.2 becomes a really
stable version (what we can assume, right? ;-), you should _NOW_ test it out
yourself.
For this go to http://www.openssl.org/source/repos.html and follow it's
information to grab the latest OpenSSL sources via RSYNC or FTP. For those who
want to give it just a quick try, the snapshot tarballs are available via FTP
from ftp://ftp.openssl.org/snapshot/. The tarballs are usually rolled once per
day. Until the release on next Monday they're now rolled every 6 hours for
your pleasure.
Please help the OpenSSL core team to make version 0.9.2 a success by testing
out the latest version on as much platforms as possible this week. For this
grab the source tree via RSYNC...
$ rsync -rv rsync://dev.openssl.org/openssl-cvs/openssl/ openssl/
...or via FTP:
$ lynx ftp://ftp.openssl.org/snapshot/
...download the latest tarball...
$ gunzip <openssl-YYMMDD-HHMM.tar.gz | tar xvf -
$ mv openssl-YYMMDD-HHMM openssl
Then at least run the following procedure:
$ cd openssl
$ sh config
$ make
$ make rehash
$ make test
When `make test' fails please inform us by posting to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and include as much problem/error details as possible, please. Additionally
when it work correctly, feel free to also inform us about this success, of
course. Please also watch for compiler _warning_ and not only fatal compiler
_errors_, please. Thanks.
