OK, a couple of questions....

1) I am making a fairly well optimised port of some hashing tools from
OpenSSL available as a nice "slick" application for the Macintosh... I was
thinking of using some of the graphics from your website. [Any font
data/base images you guys might have would be nice to get too, for a unified
look+feel].

Is this permitted? 

No part of my application/port is "closed source" -- all of its components
are without proprietary restriction.  

2) I have written (and still am writing) up some very optimised cores for
the PowerPC+68K architectures for md5, sha1, DES, bignum, etc.  I have alot
of patches to submit. :)  What's the official method - I can do proper UNIX
diff-styles, no problem. Who is the "patch master"?

I've also added some more compiler intrinsics [mainly for the Metrowerks
compilers]... for those gunshy on assembler.

Good job on the code, guys... so far, it's been a very painless porting
effort.  98% of my changes have been solely for performance.  The 680x0
versions really need assembler... I've seen ABYSMAL performance with C,
particularly for DES, on that platform.

Oh, I've made some patches to support building for a "MachTen PowerPC"
target [a Mach-based UNIX ABI runtime that runs on top of MacOS] as well...
pretty minor stuff...
