Shridhar, a tool that incorporates OpenSSL code can hardly be released as
GPL, because OpenSSL itself is not GPL.
I think you should release it under a license similar to the one of OpenSSL,
that is BSD like, that both makes the source of the product available to
everyone, and leaves you perfectly free to use the code in any commercial
product you do not want to release the source code of.
Maybe be you could release it as an external contribution to openssl.
It might be a good idea to take the license of the recent release of
Echohttpd as a model.
