Hello. Has there been any discussion on creating an implementation of
Secure Socket Layer (see http://home.mcom.com/info/SSL.html) or some
permutation of that idea under Linux? This couldn't really be done
for mainstream linux use due to export restrictions (as far as I can
tell) but it still looks interesting as an experiment. Mcom licenses
out a library already that will do this. In leu of dealing with them
and RSA, could this be done with RSAREF and some hacking from the PGP
source (Still dealing with RSA but taking out the dependence on mcom).
