David,
I'll provide the goat. (I also have a book of Special Incantations I use in such cases...) Do you have 'reservations' about the openssl gang's inclinations to incorporate these changes?

Just apply the patches which are in OpenSSL RT waiting to be applied. For 0.9.8: http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2067&user=guest&pass=guest For 1.0.0: http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2065&user=guest&pass=guest For HEAD: http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2045&user=guest&pass=guest If you could also sacrifice a goat or something in the hope that some of these patches will eventually make it into OpenSSL, that would also be appreciated. -- David Woodhouse Open Source Technology Centre david.woodho...@intel.com Intel Corporation ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List openssl-dev@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
