Hi Nilesh,

I think you are referring to the ID
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tls-dtls-heartbeat-01
and to the patch available at
http://sctp.fh-muenster.de/dtls-patches.html

We have not submitted the patch to the OpenSSL bug tracker since we wanted to
wait for some number assignment from IANA.

Once the numbers have been assigned, we'll submit the patch and hope that
it will be included in OpenSSL.

But I think DTLS in 0.9.8 is broken anyway, so it does not make sense to
integrate that feature in 0.9.8. I guess it will be only in 1.0.1.

Best regards
Michael
