Yes, it is. Let me be very clear in saying that the situation in the
last two years is, while far from ideal, significantly better than it
used to be. For that, let me say thank you. I disagree with you on a
number of things (including the fact that I think that Debian still
has a long way to go toward getting it right), but your maintenance is
appreciated and things are better than they used to be.

Please don't repeat this, because as I pointed out on ruby-core, it's
not true. it's not illegal to load libreadline and openssl in the same
process; it's illegal to ship software that contains both. Neither the
OpenSSL license nor the GNU GPL address use or incidental in-memory
copies, only distribution.
