ITUGLIB Quick News: OpenSSL 3.2 Beta1

[Randall]

Hi Everyone,

OpenSSL 3.2-beta1 is now on the ITUGLIB website. It is provided as a preview of what is coming. The git branch is openssl-3.2, if you want to build it yourself.

Our assessment is that everything appears to work cleanly except the SPT build, which seems to hang randomly and fails QUIC tests also randomly. I have opened Issues with the OpenSSL team on this. Hopefully everything will be fixed up by official release date - we will comment on it as releases move forward. We are also attempting to remove FLOSS as a dependency, which I personally think would be good for everyone.

Regards,
Randall Becker

Please be aware that 3.2.0 has been officially released by OpenSSL but is unusable on NonStop. 3.2.1 will have a critical fix that will make it work. If you need 3.2.0, please contact me and I can help you make it work, for fee, of course.
