Of course letsencrypt is supportive of open standards and working with other clients, etc., but they do seem to have their own client, "certbot", which is available in ports and packages on OpenBSD. * https://letsencrypt.org/ * https://certbot.eff.org/ Yes, it would be unreasonable to expect too much support from the "certbot" folks on OpenBSD's acme-client, because they aren't the ones who are responsible for developing acme-client, although is a little curious to me that "certbot" has such a close relationship with "letsencrypt".
