Is Sameer/C2net Attempting to subvert the OpenSSL and Mod-ssl projects
To: cypherpunks@cyberpass.net cc: Subject: OpenSSL and C2Nets attempted subversion of same(Sameers track record -------- On the Subject of Sameers record with open source mod_ssl.c(this was the component that Sameer wishes wasnt available(and did his best to deny to his customers) and indeed was quite sucessful in preventing its availability until Ralf Engleschall's mod_ssl becam available... This is the REAL reason C2net took a nose dive...) and now it appears Sameer is trying to co-opt that project also. I trust Ben Laurie and Ralf... They developed the code . I DONT trust Sameer... he is simply a privateer, he takes sources and trys to restrict availability so he can make a profit from Intellectual Property NOT developed by him... I specifically suspect his announcement coming on the heels of Ben's. I dont think this person will ever get a clue about either Open Source or GPL. merry Xmas the baby ruth bar in the swimming pool :)

I must have missed this one. Could anyone provide some greater detail on what the mod_ssl.c issue was with Sameer & C2Net? FWIW I have a couple of projects that I am working on that are dependent on the SSLeay Libs. If I don't like the way Sameer or C2Net is going with this I will just continue my own development on the Libs. -- --------------------------------------------------------------- William H.
