I've sent the first release of our engine for 0.9.6x more than 6 months ago. Later on, I've sent a release for the 0.9.7dev long before the 0.9.7beta versions. > BTW: Have you tested compilation of this code on other platforms besides > Linux?

We've tested in Linux (2.4.x), Windows (2k) and Solaris (8) platforms. If it is mandatory to test in several platforms, please send me a list. I'll be happy to do it :-) On the other hand, I've proposed a patch for mod_ssl concerning the random in crypto cards. > Could you please open a ticket on the openssl request-tracker for this? > http://www.openssl.org/support/rt2.html > That's the appropriate place for this sort of change request. ok.

Sorry for any inconvinience but I think i'm not pushing too hard, am I?
