is OpenSSL currently restrictive as well ?


Yes that is what the subject says but OpenSSL 3 also uses Apache 2.

In laymen terms, the Apache 2 license contains additional protections for users using the source code that GPLv2 does not. While these additional protection are in the spirit of the GPL (the GPL3 includes the same protections), they are not in the letter of GPL2 and GPL2 does not allow additional restriction (like these protections).

So it would be nice if you could just agree to allow the special exception, so we can continue using mbed TLS and OpenSSL with OpenVPN.
