koldo, AFAIR you suggested to switch to some other library with less restrictive license.
I'd like to ask Mirek what he thinks about adding new classes to Web/SSL and receiving our efforts on switching from OpenSSL.
Hello Mindtraveller
The reason of asking Tomáš is because he is the author and maintainer of package Web/SSL, so he has to decide .
About using other library instead of OpenSSL, well, that is a second and secondary question. Why?: It exists a library called OpenTLS that wants to cover all OpenSSL features with a less restrictive license. However:
- OpenTLS seems to be in a preliminary state and it should have to be studied if it covers all options required by Web/SSL
- OpenSSL license is not bad as it permits commercial and non-commercial use. However it is not completely compatible with GPL (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenSSL)
