+    o Compilation error: "unsigned long*" and "int*" under AIX
+    o Why are NULL ciphers in front of the cipher spec?

   IN PROGRESS
 
     o Steve is currently working on:
-       X509 V3 extension code including:
-       1. Support for the more common PKIX extensions.
-       2. Proper (or at least usable) certificate chain verification.
-       3. Support in standard applications (req, x509, ca).
-       4. Documentation on how all the above works.
-       Next on the list is probably PKCS#12 integration.
