Ok, what we have is a foolish impasse, and I want/hope/plead that
*someone* will lift a finger to help out.

The gwenhywfar author thinks that by granting the openssl license
exception he's done all he needs to.  you think that by doing nothing,
you've done all you need to.

and, meanwhile, everybody loses.

can you please decide that helping the gwenhywfar people with this is
worth the effort, will help free software and free software users?
Please??
