    Jan Mojžíš

    for having written

    https://github.com/janmojzis/tlswrapper

    which is a TLS wrapper written in the UNIX way. I've been looking for a program like that for a little while to be able to continue to use
    Daniel J. Bernstein's tcpserver (wrapped in TLS).

    And another thank-you for the fact that tlswrapper can read a single
    file including the full chain of certificates and the private key of the server.

    (*) FreeBSD

    I could not find a precompiled package of tlswrapper in FreeBSD's pkg collection. Perhaps I should make that contribution.

    (*) The ucspi-ssl package

    There's sslserver from the ucspi-ssl package at

    https://www.fehcom.de/ipnet/ucspi-ssl.html

    but it hasn't been easy to compile it.

    (*) inetd and xinetd

    I did look at the current state of affairs of inetd and xinetd and it
    looks like they ignore TLS completely. Perhaps they shouldn't?

    I've been using hitch (in ports)
