- Miscellaneous and Questions
sarnold> I'm curious about our proposed favored ssl/tls bindings in our SDK.. do we have an API there that's better than OpenSSL's for application authors to use?
- jdstrand mentioned Qt has some, yes (but that would require writing in C++)
- sarlond will follow-up with bzoltan from the SDK team
