------------------------------

             Summary: replace openssl with GnuTLS
                 Key: ASTERISK-25543
                 URL: https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-25543
             Project: Asterisk
          Issue Type: Improvement
      Security Level: None
            Reporter: Max


OpenSSL does not only have BSD license contrary to this project, it's also well known for huge amount of deadly security vulnerabilities, even before heartbleed.

It would be nice if I could avoid bringing in such a library just because of Asterisk - having support for GnuTLS will let the user to make such a choice.

Using http://www.gnutls.org/manual/html_node/Compatibility-with-the-OpenSSL-library.html will aid with the transition.
