Licensing Update - OpenSSL Blog

While this would obviously be good for SageMath and most linux distributions, the email that they sent out probably gave some lawyer cramps:

  If we do not hear from you, we will assume that you have no objection.

The Apache license is also going to annoy the BSD people, and in particular the LibreSSL contributors who will no longer be able to merge the improvements made in OpenSSL. Many of those same contributors have code in OpenSSL, so it will be fun to watch this play out.
