OpenSSL or CDSA for Portable TLS? 11
bfrog asks: "I'm looking for a portable C/C++ client & server TLS library for Windows, Linux, Solaris, and Mac OS X. The license must be commercial-code-friendly. It seems like the choices are: the old standby OpenSSL; or CDSA . Apple makes a convincing argument for CDSA over OpenSSL in this PDF document , but I'm having trouble finding a mature CDSA implementation that's ready to go on all of these platforms. Perhaps I should use the best CDSA implementation for each given platform, and hope that the API's are compatible. That is, after all, the point of CDSA, right? Any suggestions?"

The only think about NSS that worries me is the Netscape Portable Runtime part and how well it works with our own threaded runtime.
