Thanks for sharing Kevin.  I found this a compelling paper justifying
the libressl effort and seeking community involvement. (For the time
poor, start at page/slide 7)
http://www.openbsd.org/papers/bsdcan14-libressl/index.html
As an aspiration, Libressl is expected in Openbsd 5.6; 5.5 was released
on 1st May, 2014.
