Re: [LUG] OpenSSL --> LibreSSL

 



As noted there is the attempt to support a lot of platforms and protocols. All that C pre-processor rubbish makes for painful code maintenance and testing. The protocols are over complicated and it is hard to drop support for platforms etc, but some of the crypto code (mostly in libcrypto now)  is subtle, which discourages casual contributions. But yes it was known not to be a beautiful code base.
