IMHO I think OpenSSL has improved over OpenSSL of the past - which is great to see - but they have also diverged themselves into writing a full QUIC implementation which *I personally think* is a distraction they don't need. That being said, there aren't too many other options. -- Daniel Gustafsson https://vmware.com/
