We discussed this on #faif[1] and: Richard Fontana says the OpenSSL-system library exception thing is misattributed to him and he addressed this quite directly in his FOSDEM talk last February. He had no other comments. https://archive.fosdem.org/2014/schedule/event/licensecompat/ Bradley Kuhn says that for GPLv2-only works Debian should not consider OpenSSL to be a system library but for works where the GPLv3 can apply, SSL/TLS is likely a "Standard Interface" and thus subject to the "System Library" exception. 1.
