Hi, All,

We are working on AES-NI acceleration in OpenSSL. With the help of Andy,
we have pushed the AES-NI acceleration patches into OpenSSL CVS
development branch. But It seems that the patches have not been merged
by the 1.0.0 and/or 0.9.8 branches. So We have some questions:

- Is there any rules for a patch to move from CVS development version to
the stable branches (1.0.0 and/or 0.9.8)?

- What can we do to help the moving occurs?

Although there is no machine in market supporting AES-NI now yet. But
AES-NI support will be available in the next generation of Intel
platform "Westmere" instead of the one after that "SandyBridge". And OSV
such as Redhat and Novell are waiting for the AES-NI supporting in
OpenSSL now.

Thanks,
Huang Ying
