Oh yes, it was not that big, but it touched a lot of files

Armin should definitely become a committer soon. I'm no longer sure how that process works. I had sent a vote request regarding Ariel to the private list but for some reason it did not get there. I even sent it through the apache SMTP using my @apache.org email address, but it still didn't suffice to let it through.

Another thing is that we should be focusing on removing
copyleft components and perhaps some cleanups before
doing enhancements. I specifically want to avoid the
situation in LO where the code and the configuration
options keep growing and growing without control to
the point where patches occasionally make gcc run
out of memory.

- Use of OpenSSL instead of nss for AES encryption.

I'm looking into replacing nss by openssl for encryption and signing of documents. NSS is currently also responsible for key and certificate management and replacing that seems to be the really tricky part...
