Hi Everyone,

This is a really important question for the community that will guide what ITUGLIB builds for OpenSSL 3.2 and beyond. Specifically:

Is anyone still using SPT threading? The new version of OpenSSL is having issues with SPT. PUT works just fine without any errors or hangs or issues. What we need to know is whether anyone still needs the SPT builds or whether we can officially drop them.

OpenSSL 1.1.1x through 3.1.x work fine with SPT, but 3.2.0 introduces functionality that breaks SPT - specifically DGRAM (UDP datagrams).

This is an urgent question.

Sincerely,
Randall Becker
On Behalf of the ITUGLIB Technical Committee
