[openssl-dev] [PATCH 1/1] add TPM2 version of create_tpm2_key and libtpm2.so engine

[Richard Levitte]

⁣There seems to be some confusion here. 

James, I understand the tpm engine as an external project, not part of the OpenSSL source proper and not intended to be. 

However, openssl-dev at openssl.org is a list focused on the development of OpenSSL proper. That makes it a bit odd to discuss the tpm engine here. Largely off topic. 

Cheers 
Richard
