[Python-Dev] Future of SSL

[M.-A. Lemburg]

[Integrating more crypto code into Python]

Please don't proceed in this direction. Crypto code has a long
tradition of making world-wide distribution hard and painful,
either to export, to import or to usage restrictions.

There's a good reason why e.g. mxCrypto was developed outside the
US, in fact I wrote that package because I couldn't legally export
Andrew's code from the US. OpenSSL itself was developed in large 
parts in Australia for much the same reason.
