Hi everyone,

I'm packaging your software, Ossec, for Debian [1] and, there's an
ambiguity issue between GPL and OpenSSL licenses when they are being
redistributed together.

It would be great if you could add the OpenSSL exception to Ossec's
legal code as it's described in this email [2] because, although I
already have a patch to avoid linking against OpenSSL, and sysadmins can
use other software (like OpenVPN) to send information through OpenSSL
tunnels, this is an interesting feature that I'm sure we all would be
glad of being able to use in our Ossec server-agent installation.

I'll be waitting for your answer here or within your code.

Thanks in advance,
