--------------------------------------------------------------
[~alex.parvulescu] IMO the issue at stake is to figure out whether Oak wants to
provide a general crypto API (and use it in its own implementation) or if it is
fine otherwise.
How the default implementation of such general crypto API is done is not so
important as long as it is easy to swap it for an alternative one.
Customers may anyway either chose or be required to run a certified (e.g. FIPS)
crypto module or otherwise proprietary module that can't be linked here.
Assuming the Apache Oak team is not fine with the default implementation, we
could as well ditch it (provide no implementation at all) or we could base the
default implementation on a 3rd party open source crypto library which is
license compatible with Apache.
