   OpenSSL version 0.9.8m-beta1 released
   ====================================

   OpenSSL - The Open Source toolkit for SSL/TLS
   http://www.openssl.org/

   The OpenSSL project team is pleased to announce the release of
   version 0.9.8m-beta1 of our open source toolkit for SSL/TLS. This new
   OpenSSL version is a security and bug fix beta release which implements
   draft-ietf-tls-renegotiation-03.txt to address CVE-2009-3555. For a
   complete list of changes, please see
   http://www.openssl.org/source/exp/CHANGES.

   We have taken the unusual step of releasing a beta from the stable branch
   of OpenSSL for two reasons. Firstly the renegotiation specification may
   change before they are finalised. Secondly a large number of changes in
   OpenSSL 0.9.8 have been made since the last release and a beta release
   should encourage testing and help resolve any issues before the final
   release.

   It is expected that this will be the only beta release of OpenSSL 0.9.8m.

   OpenSSL 0.9.8m-beta1 is available for download via HTTP and FTP from the
   following master locations (you can find the various FTP mirrors under
   http://www.openssl.org/source/mirror.html):

     * http://www.openssl.org/source/
     * ftp://ftp.openssl.org/source/

   The distribution file names are:

    o openssl-0.9.8m-beta1.tar.gz
      Size: 3767860
      MD5 checksum: 6168ce47e20b216c529b14e89144413b
      SHA1 checksum: 7fa59c637c29e4e679c6942442ec370338a8c69f

   The checksums were calculated using the following commands:

    openssl md5 openssl-0.9.8m-beta1.tar.gz
    openssl sha1 openssl-0.9.8m-beta1.tar.gz

  Please download and test them as soon as possible. 

  Also check the latest snapshots at ftp://ftp.openssl.org/snapshot/ 
  or CVS (see http://www.openssl.org/source/repos.html) to avoid
  reporting previously fixed bugs.

  Reports and patches should be sent to [email protected].
  Discussions around the development of OpenSSL should be sent to
  [email protected].  Anything else should go to
  [email protected].

  The best way, at least on Unix, to create a report is to do the
  following after configuration:

      make report

  That will do a few basic checks of the compiler and bc, then build
  and run the tests.  The result will appear on screen and in the file
  "testlog".  Please read the report before sending it to us.  There
  may be problems that we can't solve for you, like missing programs.

   Yours,

   The OpenSSL Project Team...
