Don't construe this message as in any way taking sides in the "debate that never 
ends".  Just a quick point of fact, that there is, indeed, an GPL, open-source 
"competitor" to OpenSSL under development, called GNUTLS.  The URL is

     <http://gnutls.hellug.gr/>

(Disclaimers repeated - I'm just pointing out that it *exists* <g>)
