Does that mean that OpenSSL 1.1 is utterly useless ? :) -Eg. I would certainly not update it, if it breaks *any* API, because who knows what might silently no longer work, if I do ? Maybe most of my server software would work, but what if I had software installed, that I use, which I might not notice wouldn't work - it would take a lot of time before realizing what no longer works and perhaps longer to figure out why. Thank you for sending out a warning early; the best cure is to prevent disease. =) Love Jens
