Unfortunately, it's illegal to combine OpenSSL with GPL code unless the code has specifically added an OpenSSL exception (NetworkManager does not have such an exception). So while I greatly appreciate the work that you've done, I feel very uneasy about accepting a patch that when enabled, would make distribution of the result illegal :( http://people.gnome.org/~markmc/openssl-and-the-gpl.html Dan > This patch adds support for using OpenSSL in addition to gnutls and > nss.
