Wouldn't it be wiser to wait and see what comes out of this project? :) Besides, they're first making it for OpenBSD only (which is completely reasonable), porting it will come even later. If you want to contribute to LibreSSL now, I think the best you can do is to donate money. They don't seem to need more programmers... :) -Dimitry [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.22 (Darwin) iEYEARECAAYFAlNZi2oACgkQsF6jCi4glqP11gCfflBwytfVOKKcdXKTquTXwke9 yFAAn2Y8NwMGFEb+zLh5fkfuwXvr3xrv =m1o6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
