+Standards related to OpenSSL
+============================
+
+[Please, this is currently a draft. I made a first try at finding
+ documents that describe parts of what OpenSSL implements. There are
+ big gaps, and I've most certainly done something wrong. Please
+ correct whatever is... Also, this note should be removed when this
+ file is reaching a somewhat correct state. -- Richard Levitte]

+
+All pointers in here will be either URL's or blobs of text borrowed
+from miscellaneous indexes, like rfc-index.txt (index of RFCs),
+1id-index.txt (index of Internet drafts) and the like.
+
+To find the latest possible RFCs, it's recommended to either browse
+ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/ or go to http://www.rfc-editor.org/ and
+use the search mechanism found there.
+To find the latest possible Internet drafts, it's recommended to
+browse ftp://ftp.isi.edu/internet-drafts/.
+To find the latest possible PKCS, it's recommended to browse
+http://www.rsasecurity.com/rsalabs/pkcs/.
