Due to a lot of problems in current web browsers (Firefox 3.0.7 had a critical flaw in some component or other, and I would prefer my machine not get pwned :) ), I tend not to go to unknown sites. This mailing list is archived on Nabble, and it's likely that you'd get more folk to look if you linked there. >> r...@openssl.org is the best place to send patches, as it creates a >> ticket in the Request Tracking system that is used by the core >> developers. > > Alright.

I agree, the site could use a major redesign to be more useful. (Right now, it's obfuscated, probably to prevent people from abusing it.) The people who give base-level support don't generally get RT accounts. (I don't have one, for example.) It's my thought that RT is primarily used for the developers, rather than trying to delegate support requests -- probably because nobody's getting paid for this (except the developers, and then only because of support from companies that want more features -- like Google, apparently most recently, if the 0.9.9 changelog is any indication). :) -Kyle H ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List openssl-dev@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
