OpenSSL 1.0.1 is expected to be released in the next few weeks.

There have been many changes since OpenSSL 1.0.0 including:

	o PSS signatures in certificates, requests and CRLs.
	o Support for password based recipient info for CMS.
	o Support TLS v1.2 and TLS v1.1.
	o Preliminary FIPS capability for unvalidated 2.0 FIPS module.
	o SRP support.

Users are encouraged to test recent snapshots of OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
report any problems via the request tracker ([email protected]). 

The actual 1.0.1 release date will depend on the number and
severity of issues uncovered.

Steve.
