We are planning on removing the following systems from OpenSSL 1.1:

Netware

OS/2



There are a few reasons for this.  In no particular order they include: these 
platforms are no longer supported by the vendor; the configurations and builds 
have not been testable by the team for years and might not even work; nobody on 
the team has access to any of these.



As a hopefully mediating factor, please note that they are still part of 1.0.2, 
which we have said is an LTS release with support until 2019.



People interested in supporting any of these systems should look at building 
their own configuration with the template system; post on the openssl-dev list 
for help.  Reducing the footprint and tangle of #ifdef's is also very important.



We are also looking at others that are in a similar (although perhaps not 
identical) reason and will post here about them.
