   AVAILABLE PATCHES
 
-    o
+    o IA-64 (a.k.a. Intel Itanium) public-key operation performance 
+      patch for Linux is available for download at
+      http://www.openssl.org/~appro/096b.linux-ia64.diff. As URL
+      suggests the patch is relative to OpenSSL 0.9.6b.
 
   IN PROGRESS
 
     o Geoff and Richard are currently working on:
        ENGINE (the new code that gives hardware support among others).
     o Richard is currently working on:
+       UI (User Interface)
        UTIL (a new set of library functions to support some higher level
              functionality that is currently missing).
        Shared library support for VMS.
-       OCSP
        Kerberos 5 authentication
        Constification
+       OCSP
 
   NEEDS PATCH
 
     o  apps/ca.c: "Sign the certificate?" - "n" creates empty certificate file
 
-    o  #include <openssl/e_os.h> in exported header files is illegal since
+    o  OpenSSL_0_9_6-stable:
+       #include <openssl/e_os.h> in exported header files is illegal since
        e_os.h is suitable only for library-internal use.
 
-       (This applies to openssl-0.9.6-stable too; openssl/conf.h is the
-       offending header file.  While it is rarely used itself by applications,
-       it is included by openssl/x509v3.h, which is more likely to be used.)
-
     o  Whenever strncpy is used, make sure the resulting string is NULL-terminated
        or an error is reported
 
 
   WISHES

+
+       Tom Holroyd tells us there is a SRP patch for OpenSSH at
+       http://members.tripod.com/professor_tom/archives/, that could
+       be useful.
