The way I see it this is relevant to the discussion at hand. Before |
| 25 |
implementing any system wide change to support LibreSSL, in order to |
| 26 |
avoid future issues, a proper cost/benefit analysis and discussion is |
| 27 |
in order. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Do we have an overview of what functionality and other pros (hereunder |
| 30 |
security gains that is not fixed in OpenSSL) is gained by implementing |
| 31 |
global LibreSSL support? |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Or is this just increasing our maintenance, and security tracking, etc |
| 34 |
burdens without any strong benefits? |
