51 o Steve is currently working on (in no particular order):
52 ASN1 code redesign, butchery, replacement.
54 EVP cipher enhancement.
55 Enhanced certificate chain verification.
56 Private key, certificate and CRL API and implementation.
57 Developing and bugfixing PKCS#7 (S/MIME code).
58 Various X509 issues: character sets, certificate request extensions.
59 o Richard is currently working on:
61 Attribute Certificate support
62 Certificate Pair support
63 Storage Engines (primarly an LDAP storage engine)
64 Certificate chain validation with full RFC 3280 compatibility
68 o 0.9.8-dev: COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT do not
69 handle ECCdraft cipher suites correctly.
71 o apps/ca.c: "Sign the certificate?" - "n" creates empty certificate file
73 o "OpenSSL STATUS" is never up-to-date.
77 o The Makefile hierarchy and build mechanism is still not a round thing:
79 1. The config vs. Configure scripts
80 It's the same nasty situation as for Apache with APACI vs.
81 src/Configure. It confuses.
82 Suggestion: Merge Configure and config into a single configure
83 script with a Autoconf style interface ;-) and remove
84 Configure and config. Or even let us use GNU Autoconf
85 itself. Then we can avoid a lot of those platform checks
86 which are currently in Configure.
88 o Support for Shared Libraries has to be added at least
89 for the major Unix platforms. The details we can rip from the stuff
90 Ralf has done for the Apache src/Configure script. Ben wants the
91 solution to be really simple.
93 Status: Ralf will look how we can easily incorporate the
94 compiler PIC and linker DSO flags from Apache
95 into the OpenSSL Configure script.
97 Ulf: +1 for using GNU autoconf and libtool (but not automake,
98 which apparently is not flexible enough to generate
103 o Add variants of DH_generate_parameters() and BN_generate_prime() [etc?]
104 where the callback function can request that the function be aborted.
