Google creates fork of OpenSSL called BoringSSL

June 21, 2014 by Paul Spoerry 2 Comments

Is this a good idea?  Apparently, they have their own fixes they reapply after every #OpenSSL  patch. I don't know why those don't go back upstream but it was enough they created their own fork called #BoringSSL  (and frankly that name is boring).
 
Is it smart to have more implementation?
