Hello,

It’s my pleasure to announce that ‘OpenSSL for Ruby’ reached release  
version 1.0.0.

The biggest news is that it was accepted to Ruby CVS, so it will be  
standard extension in Ruby 1.8.0.

1.0.0 is based on OSSL2 code. But unlike OSSL2 it supports OpenSSL 0.9.6  
tree.

My big thanks goes to Gotou Yuuzou and NaHi for their great work.

BR

```
Michal

Thanks a lot!

Is it now thread save?  
I’m asking because when i use net/imap with openssl  
it very often starves, doesn’t happen without openssl.

Congratulations on your great project to be included in 1.8.0.

RAA will allow project owners to update his/her entry via SSL  
with client certificate. This means RAA have it’s own CA  
and publish(word?) certificates to project owners. Soap4r +  
http-access2 will help you to handle certificates for  
secure RAA update.

Welcome. Gotoyuzo did the main job. I only fixed some glitches  
and added examples.

We NaHi and gotoyuzo had a presentation about PKI  
based on OpenSSL and Ruby/OpenSSL. Slides are here  
but bear in mind, no code in slides and it’s in Japanese.

Michal, how is the status of your PKI project?  
Are there anyone who are interested in PKI, CA/RA?

Regards,  
// NaHi

Sorry, my slides does not include any code but Gotoyuzo’s does.

It includes step by step SSL echo server/client programming  
and sample code of S/MIME signing/verifying, encrypting/decrypting.
