Also, regarding the googlecode home page for your project: you need to
also explicitly mention the people who wrote SSLeay (from which
OpenSSL is derived), not just the OpenSSL project.  The details are in
the LICENSE file in the OpenSSL package. :)

"This product includes software developed by the OpenSSL Project for
use in the OpenSSL Toolkit. (http://www.openssl.org/)  This product
includes cryptographic software written by Eric Young
([EMAIL PROTECTED]).  This product includes software written by Tim
Hudson ([EMAIL PROTECTED])."
