[Devel] Re: [Users] TLS setup

[Cesc]

See this thread at openssl-dev ... the guy has the patch, but the developers
in openssl do not seem enthusiastic (i remember once one replied ... but
then the guy with the patch didn't say much again ... ). But i guess it will
be incorporated some day ... but not soon.

And, i have no idea how good the patch is ...
