This hints at part of the problem - simply not enough resources. It's not that OpenSSL folks are slow or lazy (absolutely far from it) - but rather they've got tons on their plate already.
One day (hopefully) corporations will recognize that everyone can benefit by helping open source (either providing resources or $funding).
- bluejekyll 10y agoThis is the package maintainers, not OpenSSL, right? Or does the OpenSSL group maintain all their packages on all these OSes too?
