Hi Paul,

thanks for the info but I won't read it. I try to focus on things that matter. There are too many things that try to distract everyone from producing something helpful. Law suits are IMHO not of that kind.��

I would rather put some money on the table for someone building proper FFI to openssl. The Cryptography was a mess I cleaned a bit but I had also scenarios where the squeak code was not working properly. And there is no real reason to have a smalltalk implementation of crypto if we carry around openssl anyway (for iceberg and secure connects).

PierceNg has an implementation that implements a subset of openssl. This implementation is modeled after the library so lots of class methods. I'd prefer to have something more object model like.��

So if you think you can implement this please contact me and tell me what you think how long it takes and how much it will cost to do at least the things we have now in Cryptography. I'm willing to collect money or pay it myself.
