it is an Open Source project - thus there is also an onus on the USERS who use the code to also provide something into the mix - commonly that is for documentation - as users are often not the ones maintaining or improving the codebase...but are people USING the API and software (usually for their own purposes and financial gain) - so ideal for being people to offer something back in the way of , eg, better documentation. I'd cite a use example - eg Cisco use OpenSSL for their AnyConnect SSL client - they are using quite a few of the APIs and functions in their commercial product(s) - a proper symbiotic relationship would be for their expertise to be fed back in the way of bug fixes and documentation. coders are often NOT the best documentation writers ;-) alan ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
