Re: RSA licensing for OpenSSL usage?

[Paul Rubin]

My understanding is:

1) RSAREF is only licensed to be used for non-commercial purposes.
Setting up a web retail site with it, for example, is not permitted.
RSAREF as normally distributed is also extremely slow.

2) BSAFE is a library that you can use instead of RSAREF and 
commercial use is OK.  But you have to pay for every copy.
BSAFE is fast.

3) Covalent Raven is Apache with either modssl or apache-ssl
(which is similar) installed.  So if your customer asked for
Apache with an SSL extension, Raven should fulfill the requirement.
If your customer asked for just plain "apache", you have to explain
that plain apache doesn't do SSL.
