Hi Steven, They are posted in the Request Tracker (http://www.aet.tu-cottbus.de/rt2/NoAuth/Buglist.html, or via http://www.openssl.org//support/rt2.html), under item 951.

I may have to port an application using OpenSSL to AS/400 at some stage so I would appreciate it if you would post the patches. Perhaps if you post them the team will integrate them.

OS/400 versions V5R1M0 upwards are supported. It is based on a previous port (version 0.9.7b?) by Brian Morris ([EMAIL PROTECTED], ticket #701), and also includes the new EBCDIC patches by Richard Koenning ([EMAIL PROTECTED], ticket #843). But it also adds a few more changes that (IMHO) improve the port and build environment, and extends the port to include service programs (AS/400 version of shared libraries), and ports for different EBCDIC characters sets (CCSIDs). I've also included an extensive README that should prove useful for OpenSSL users in explaining the port, and some of the AS/400-specific issues. Any questions, no problem.

RE: [openssl.org #951] FW: New port to the AS/400 (iSeries)
Slight misunderstanding, I think Steven was commenting about the lack of reply to my first mail, which asked where to make the submission of the port. I'd been a bit lazy and hadn't searched the web site fully, to find out that I just had to mail it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] And if anybody has, please don't misinterpret my comment: I'm not holding my breathe about integration soon ... :-) ... this was only added because I'm pretty sure that you have higher priority work to do than to integrate a port that is, for most people, pretty obscure.

Hi Richard, I didn't so much mean lack of response from the OpenSSL team, but lack of response from anyone. I assumed there would be many people interested in an OS/400 port so was surprised that there had been no responses stating so. I greatly appreciate the work that you and all members of the OpenSSL team do and appreciate the balance that you must maintain.

RE: [openssl.org #951] FW: New port to the AS/400 (iSeries)
FWIW, I am one of those waiting for George's code to be merged in. He has done a great job putting this patch together and it will make it a whole lot easier to maintain current OpenSSL builds on the AS/400.
