Description:

The OpenSSL Project is a collaborative effort to develop a robust,
commercial-grade, fully featured, and Open Source toolkit implementing the
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3) and Transport Layer Security (TLS v1)
protocols with full-strength cryptography world-wide. The project is
managed by a worldwide community of volunteers that use the Internet to
communicate, plan, and develop the OpenSSL tookit and its related
documentation.

OpenSSL is based on the excellent SSLeay library developed from Eric A.
Young and Tim J. Hudson. The OpenSSL toolkit is licensed under an
Apache-style licence, which basically means that you are free to get and
use it for commercial and non-commercial purposes.

This package contains the static library you can use to develop
statically linked OpenSSL-based applications for MinGW32 target.
