Since we still have some time until lenny release, I have decided to
give GnuTLS two more months to clear up their issues. The most
pressing issue is the entropy issue, IMO, which has lost some of its
threat since exim does not block on entropy depletion. The
interoperability issues with mobile phones might be the fault of a
commercial library vendor.
You might want to subscribe gnutls-devel at gnu.org to join the discussion.
Greetings
Marc
